The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977) - full transcript

Hey, Engelberg. Let me see it.

Wait a second.

Ah.

Glad to see you're
still in training,
Engelbuns.

Keep it up, Stein.

Jose, Miguel, cuídense bien, eh.

Hey, Jose. Hey, Miguel.

Are you clods gonna sit
on your butts all day

or we gonna play some ball?

We're waiting
for the coach.

To hell with
the cruddy coach.
We got to practice!



I know who he is. Get ready to shit. Who?

Not Buttermaker? Worse.
Mr. Manning.

Mr. Manning from
the high school?

Uh-huh. He's mean dude, okay.

Pushed one of
my brothers off
the high dive

who did not know how to swim.

I hear he threw
a basketball
at a kid's face,

busted his nose,
blood all over the place.Oh.

And then he made
the kid wipe it off.

Whatever you do,

do not look into right field.

Look alive, gentlemen.

Take your seats

and let's begin.



Gentlemen, we have
a serious game coming up

in between a double-header

at the Houston Astrodome.

We'll be in
a professional arena.

We'll be in front
of a lot of people.

The winner of this game

will play a team in Japan.

Gentlemen,
I expect to be prepared
to win this game.

Tanner Boyle?

Here.

Timothy Lupus?

Timothy Lupus?

The Looper ain't here.

Where is he?

Looper broke his leg
skateboarding.

Miguel Agilar?

Si.

Speak up, son! Si.

Up! Up!

Si! Atta boy.

Jose Agilar?

Here.

Have you got something
in your mouth, son?

Gum.

Did I give anyone
permission to chew gum?

No.

I'm going to make
this very simple.

If you want anything,

I don't care what it is,

you come to me
and ask my permission
beforehand.

In other words, gentlemen,

don't...

...assume anything.

That way you won't make an ass

out of you or me.

Who sent this guy, Hitler?

What's your name, son?

Elton. Elton what?

John.

You have something to say to the group,
Elton?

No.

Well, then I suggest
you pick up your stuff
and get out of here.

What for?

Move it, Elton!

I said move it! Now!

Jesus. God.

I don't want you
back on this field

till you can act
like a ballplayer.

Ahmad Abdul Rahim?

Here.

Why don't we just
make that Andy, huh,

make things a little easier?

Andy?

Good.

Hey, what's going on?

That guy kicked me off the team.

Gentlemen, I'm going to add
another word to the board.

Kelly Leak!
All right, Kelly.

Son, I suggest you take...

Now, look. Don't...

You talking to me?

I want you to...

All right. All right.

Hey, Coach, take a walk.
You've been fired.

Enough! Enough!

- You listen to me!
- Do you hear me?

I said listen to me!

You get off this field!

Sit down!

Shut up and sit down!

You'll never make it
to Houston without a coach!

You come back here!

Come, I'll break every bone in your body!
Come back here!

Hey, Big Looper.

Engelberg's here, too.

Here he is now.

Hey, Big Looper.
What's going on?

See your picture yet?

My dad took this last season.

We just had it blown up.

Great shot, huh?

Big Looper makes a big play.

Tanner's got something else.

An official Bears
autographed ball.

It's the only one in existence.

See? It's got
everybody's name on it.

Thanks.

Everyone talks about how they wish you were going
with us and everything.

You mean if we're going.

We still don't
have a coach
or a decent pitcher.

What about the prize?
The game in Japan?

Who wants to go to Japan anyway?
The food's terrible.

Looper...

If we win the prize,

will you go with us next time?

Yeah.

Hey, Kelly!

Hey, man!

Hey, Kelly,
where have you been?

Hey, I hear you guys
are still trying
to get to Houston.

But now they won't
let us go without
a coach.

Well, you still looking
for a pitcher?

'Cause I got one for you.

Why, you gonna to play?

Play with you turkeys?

You're kidding.

Then who's the pitcher?

- Yeah.
- Who is this guy?

What's his name?

Carmen Ronzonni.

Come on.
You guys, you can do it.
You got rhythm.

Yeah. Just move
a little bit more.

Good. Come on,
the race ain't over yet.

Way to go, Rudi!

All right! All right.

You got to move
a little bit. Come on.

Nice-looking bunch of boys.

Hey, come here for a second.

Hey, guys, this is Carmen.

Why don't you come
over here for a minute?

Played baseball back east.

Yeah, heavy action
back east, man.

By way of introduction,

I'm what you call
your basic versatile
ball thrower.

You see, like the...
All you guys heard
of Catfish Hunter, right?

Well, okay, then,
here's the Cat.

Man on first.

Watch the head movement.

Back like this,

and in.

Catfish Hunter.

You want Luis Tiant?
You got this.

Luis Tiant,
a real sharp pitcher there.

Now that's basically
where I'm coming from.

Jews, spics, niggers

and a wop that throws air balls.

Tanner, come on. Cool it, man. Tanner, would you...

Come here.

Hey, Kelly, what's
this kid all about?

I mean, I don't
want to pound
the little man,

but I just want
you to know I can't
go for the attitude.

Don't worry about it.
Tanner's cool.

You know,
I just want you to know
I can't go for it.

What about you, Kelly?
Did you change your
mind about playing?

Yeah.

- Yeah!
- All right!

But why did you
change your mind?

I got my reasons.

Hey, you dumb jackasses.
We still need
a cruddy coach.

Hey, how bad
do you guys want to play
that game in Texas?

Real bad.

Listen, do you
really wanna play?

Well, all chicken shits go home.

We've got a coach.

Who? Who is it? Listen to Kelly,
man.

I'm looking right at him.

Lester? Aw, come on.

You mean Lester,
the walking bimbo?

He's so dumb,
he can't even talk!

Hey, like I said, Tanner,
all chicken shits go home.

Now, who's with me?

Well, what are we
going to tell our folks,

that we got an idiot
for a coach?

That's crazy.

They'll never buy it.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

We'll tell them the truth.

Tell them the truth?

So, listen. Who is
this fellow anyway?

Oh, you mean
Coach Eastland? Mmm-hmm.

He's been with
Parks and Recreation
for years.

This, uh, this coach...

Um, Lester.

Lester what? Eastland.

Eastland... Eastland?

Didn't I have
a kid named
George Eastland

in class one year? I don't know.

Listen have you heard anything about Mike's
new coach?

No. There's a new coach?

Mike, do you think
he's a good coach?

Oh, sure.
He's been around
ball fields all his life.

That makes him
a good coach?

Mmm-hmm.

Now who...
Who's going with you
as a chaperone?

Coach. Coach who?

Eastland.

Have you ever
heard of him? No, I think he said...

Well, when are we
going to meet him?

Well, when we leave
and you drop me off there.

We're all leaving
from his house.

How much did
you say you'll need?

$25.

Maybe a little more, huh?

I suppose so.
Yeah, I could run
into a little trouble.

Well, how much?

Mmm, about 15.

But, honey, $15 is not
very much for you to be
gone for a week.

How are you going
to live and eat
and all that?

Let him starve.

Oh, Darryl,
will you please? Be quiet.

About 20.

75 or 80.

Four dollars.

For both of us.

How's he doing?

I got him to say,
"Hello. How are you?"

Well, how about,
"Glad to meet you"?

It's a possibility.

Hello. How are you?

Hello. How are you?

Hey, Coach! We're here.

- Hello. How are you?
- How are you doing?

I'm Fred Engelberg.
This is my wife Nancy.

I guess
you know Michael.

You take care
of him for us, Coach.

Hello. How are you?

Hey! Hello. How are you?

Wow! Is this it?

This is it, man.

All right!

Hello! Hello!

How are you?

Bye-bye.

Hello. How are you?

Hello. How are you?

You take care, you hear?

Give me a hug.

Bye, Mom. Now call us
if you need us.

Be cool. Okay, let's go.

Grab my bag, Tanner. It'll fit.

Hello.

Hello. How are you?

Come on, Tanner. Get in.

Oh, wow.

- Good-bye!
- Move it. Come on.

Good-bye!

Let's jam.Yeah.

Good-bye!

Good-bye!

Good-bye!

Good-bye!

Good-bye!

Good...

...bye.

Bye.

Bye.

- Look out, astrodome!
- Here we come!

- Watch out!
- Yeah.

Hey, you sure you know
how to drive this thing?

Hey, listen, dude,
I'm from Van Nuys.

I was born to drive.

Where'd you guys
get this van anyway?

Had a friend.

Yeah. He owed us a favor, see?

So, uh, this is
your friend's van?

Well, like, he borrowed it
from another guy.

Well, uh, who's the guy?

Uh, some dude who's out of town
for the week.

You see, my friend says if we return
the van in a week,

we got no problem. Oh.

In other words,
we're riding in
a stolen vehicle.

Stolen?

Oh, no!

We're going to the joint, man!

Hey, hey, hey!
Let's look at
the positive side.

Recent FBI figures estimate that

only 20% of all car thieves
are ever apprehended,

only 14% in the first week
after the theft occurs.

So, well, at least
the odds are in our favor.

Tell that to the guy behind us.

I knew it!
Now we're going
to the joint for sure!

Miguel, if you spit
on me one more time...

Come on, Tanner!

What will we do
if he pulls us over?

Hey, hey! Can we
be cool about this?

Now, it'd help if only
one guy did the looking.

Engelberg...

What's he doing?

He's not doing anything.
He's just driving.

I know what he's doing.

He's calling in
our license to the man,

and he's making
reservations
at the joint!

Because that's where
we're going, the joint.
We're going tonight.

Shut up, Ahmad! Cool it, Tanner!

- Come on!
- God!

He's pulling alongside!
He's making his move!

All right, be cool.

Yeah!

All right!

Hey, you guys.
Hey, you guys, will you
listen for a second?

Now, do you guys want
to be real major league
about this,

or do you want
to act like some
small-time assholes?

All right now.
Here's how they do it...

Everybody tosses
what they got
into one fund,

except for a couple of bucks
personal dough, you know,

for toothpaste, books,
what have you.

And then we elect
a treasurer, you see.

And he watches over the books and pays the bills
for the whole team.

You guys want me
to be treasurer?

Ok, fine.

I want Ogilvie.

Yeah. Yeah. Ogilvie's
reliable.

Ogilvie would be better than you.
He's honest, too.

Okay. You want Ogilvie?

Fine.

Okay, let's all
put it in the hat.

I already saved
a couple of books...

How much? We got plenty
to get to Houston now.

I still don't like the idea.

Hi. My parents sent me in.

They're in the van.

Uh, we'd like
to rent a room. A double?

Yeah, sure, a double.
How much is that?

It's gonna cost you $24.

Let me check with my dad.

Hey, Dad, is $24 all right?

How many rooms?

One room, Dad.

Get it.

We'll take it.

How come your folks
didn't come in?

Well, ever since the big fire,

they've been quite
self-conscious

about showing
themselves in public.

I mean, how much
can plastic surgery
really do?

Come on, move it, Ahmad!

I'm moving. Don't push me!

I call that bed!

Wow. This room is great.

Oh, no. We can't even use it.

How come? What's wrong?

It's being sanitized.
They've got it blocked
off with paper.

Oh, great.

Let's call the Colonel!

Is this the only
other bed in the room?

How are we all
going to sleep here?

Hey, I called that bed!

Hey, nobody called nothing, man.

I called it right when I came in,
you dumb wop.

That's it!

Fight! Hey, cool it!

Hey, he didn't mean it,
all right?

Knock it off. He didn't mean it.

Aw, take the bed! Who needs it?

I'm going out to get
something to eat.

Does anybody want to come?

Hey, what do you mean,
biscuits and coleslaw
are extra?

Hey, how you doing?

Uh, sorry.
I've got to see your ID.

What for?

You've got to be 21.

Hey, what am I going
to do, drink it?

I'm sorry. That's the law.

Jesus.
You're 21, you've been
there and back.

How do they expect
us young guys
to learn anything?

Really, I don't.

Ah... Shut the damn door!

I'll get you!

Kiddies,
you're in the way.

All right, kiddies.

It's library hour.

I got three Playboys.

Now, who wants it?

Come on, right here!

You got it!

All right! Yeah!

All right now, we got one more.

Come on, Carmen, please.

Come on, Carmen! All right.

I love it!

Oh, wow!

Kika Nunez!

- Wow!
- Oh, man.

Hey, uh, Toby,
where did Kelly go?

He said we were acting
like a bunch of idiots,

and he just took a walk.

He looked kind
of strange, though.

Hey, that's his style, you know.

The last of the Lone Eagles...

Charles Lindbergh,
James Dean, Kelly Leak.

Yeah, buy who's this guy
he knows in Houston?

Hey, just some guy
he used to know.

Huh? Don't worry now.
Kelly's cool.

He's cool.

Boys...

I haven't a thing to say.

You played a great game...

All of you.

Great game.

I guess we just can't
expect to win them all.

I'm going to tell you something

I've kept to myself for years.

Tanner, would you
shut that thing off?

None of you ever
knew George Gipp.

He was long before your time.

But you all know
what a tradition he is
at Notre Dame.

The last thing he said to me...

"Rock," he said...

"Sometime, when the team
is up against it

"and the breaks
are beating the boys,

"tell them to go out there
with all they got

"and win just one
for the Gipper."

"I don't know where
I'll be then, Rock," he said,

"but I'll know about it,

"and I'll be happy."

But what are we waiting for?

Let's go! Let's go!

Come on! Yeah! Let's go!

Oh, no. Coach Eastland's one of the greatest
drivers of all time.

He's always talking about
safety and everything.

He's really a great driver. Come on!

Shh, would you?
I'm on the telephone.

Anyway, don't worry about it.
I'll talk to you

when I get home. Okay, mom?

Finally.

Hi. How's it going?

All right. Nice to see you.

Oh, wow.

Thanks, but, uh, no, thanks.

Aw, come on!

Come back!

All that equipment!

- I know.
- And jackets.

Look at that!

My time and distance
charts say we should
be in Houston

by some time Thursday morning.

So we'll rent a room
and get some sleep

before we go to practice.

Why are they
looking at us like that?

Anybody got a peace pipe?

Hey, be cool. Be cool.

Do you play baseball?

He wants to know
if we play baseball.

Yeah, we play occasionally,

you know, here and there.

We're playing in
the Dome this Sunday,

but that's about it.

We play baseball, too.

Let's go, Tanner!

- All right, Tanner.
- Let's go.

- Come on, Tanner.
- Let's get a home run!

Come on, Tanner.

This one's going
out of the park.

Let's get a home run.

Come on, Tanner.

Come on, Tanner.
Let's go.

This one's going
out of the US. Of A.!

- All right, Tanner!
- Yes!

Run!

Lucky play. Lucky play.

Wow.

- Good try, Tanner.
- Off the rock?

Oh, they got the break.

Take away your rock,
and you got nothing.

All right, let's go.

Let's go, Ahmad!

Go get 'em!

Let's go! Come on!

Whip these guys!
Let's go! Let's go!

- Come on!
- It's all right.

Come on, man! You got two more.

Come on.

Aw!

- Yeah!
- Strike!

Come on, Ahmad.
It's cool. It's cool.

Let's go, Ahmad.
Don't worry about it.

Don't get mad.

Come on. Come on, Engelberg!

Come on, Engelberg!

Come on. Send it home!

Let's go, Engelberg.
Go, man!

Got a hit.

- Go, go, go!
- Go, man!

Oh, he got it.

I guess that's what
they mean by the home
field advantage.

Talk about luck.

Come on, you guys,
let's get 'em!

All right!

- Hey, Engelberg.
- Come here.

There's something that
me and you, we got
to talk about, you know.

And that's signals,
signs. All right?

Now, one means
fast ball. Two, curve.

Three, slider. Four, knuckler.

Five, sinker. Six, change-up.

Seven, screwball.
And eight, dipsydoodle.

Now, if you want
something like
an intentional walk,

well, then you just yell,
"intentional walk,"

'cause, you know,
nobody gives a shit
about that anyway.

Have a good game.

All right!

Hey, batter, batter, batter!
Come on, Carmen.

Hey, batter, batter, batter!

Hey, batter,
batter, batter!
Swing!

Sorry about that.

Hey, I thought
you said you
could pitch.

Yeah.

Come on. Just throw it
down the middle.

Trying to kill him or something?

Hey, batter, batter, batter!

Hey, batter, batter! Swing!

Hey, I'm sorry
about that.
Really, I...

Hey, I'm sorry. I really didn't
mean...

Hey, fellas.
Hey, I said I was sorry.

Hey, you guys, listen, he's not doing it
on purpose, man.

He just needs a couple
more warm-ups.

He's just a cruddy pitcher.

Hey, listen, everything's cool.

It's cool. I'm serious.

Hey, what are you, crazy?

You wanna get our asses kicked?
You told me you could pitch.

Hey, no rosin, stinking field,
no warm-ups.

Bull shit.

Shit, Carmen...

Hey... Hey, batter!

Hey, batter...

Come on, get the ball!

Throw it in!

Throw it in!

Relay!

Come on, get it!

Relay, relay!

Throw it in!

Come on! Come on.

Hey, batter,
batter, batter!

Come on! Throw it! Relay, relay!

Come on!

Come on, get off!

Hey, batter!

Hey, batter, batter!

- Come on, Carmen!
- Hey, batter!

Couldn't you throw it
a little harder, please?

They're hitting
every one you throw.

Oh, great.

- Come on, you guys.
- Look alive.

Engelberg,
what are you doing?

Come on, Engelberg!

Carmen, try to get
at least one guy out.

Aw!

It's going to go...

Man, it went
in the graveyard.

Forget it.

Terrific, Carmen.

Looks like we've been scalped.

- Hey, anybody got change?
- Who's got money?

I got money if anybody
needs to borrow some.

"Dear, Looper,

"Ronzonni makes me sick.

"He can't even pitch.

"Nobody thinks we can win.

"Your pal, Tanner Boyle.

"P.S. I saw a good movie
the other night.

"You'd like it."

Hey, Kelly,
can we make another stop?

Engelberg,
can't you just...

It happens. I can't
control things like this.

Hey, you guys.

There's the Dome.

Oh, man.

We're going to be
playing in that?

Hey, don't worry.

They're probably just
a bunch of dirt farmers.

Couldn't throw the ball
to save their grandmother.

Tell me about it.

Hut, hut, hut
hut, hut, hut, hut!

Together! Do it together!

Together!

Together!

Hut, hut, hut, hut!

Do you understand "together"?

Ten-hut!

All right!
You got a big game
coming up!

You got to do it together!

Are you going to win it?

Sir! Yes, sir!

All right! Arms up!

Hey, how you doing,
Mr. Orlansky?

Morrie, call me Sy, please.

Well, they're looking
real good, aren't they,
Sy?

Now, where in the hell's
the other team?

Oh, well, they're gonna
be here any time now.

Now listen, I understand
they got some real tough
competitors out there.

They got some
tough leagues
in California.

They should've been here by now.

Yeah, well, they're going
to be here any time now.

Carl! Sir!

Listen, Sy, I just
want to tell you

how much we appreciate
you getting us in
your organization,

getting us this Astrodome game.

You know, I just
want you to know

you're sure as hell
going to get your
money's worth.

Carl... Sir.

What time are
the Bears supposed
to get here?

Uh... This morning,
far as I know.

It's noon now!

Listen, Morrie, I don't
want any problem here.

I got people to answer to.

You get a team here
tomorrow, latest.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
We'll get right on it.

Just as long as I don't
have a problem, Morrie.

That's all I ask. No problem.

No problem at all.
No problem at all.

Carl. Sir.

I can't afford to wait on this other team
any longer.

I want you to get
hold of El Paso

and see if they're
still available.

What about the Bears?

Hell, he'll never
know the difference.

Hey, how about it?

It's cool.

Hey, guys, come on.

All right. Oh.

Come on, let's go. Thank God.

I'm going
right to bed. Come on, Engelberg.

Oh, God. I'm tired.

Do you have any idea
who owns that van
out front?

Let's see. If I'm not mistaken,

it belongs to a ball team.

What kind of ball team?

A ball team of midgets.

That's what they
looked like to me.

If you ask me,
the ball team is clean.

I don't have no trouble
from the little people.

Then again, you know,
I can't be sure.

Oh, my God!

What in the hell is this?

All right, officers,
let's get the kids
right in here.

It's all over now. We're going
to the joint for sure.

Come on.

All right. Why don't
you sit down so I can
talk to you, okay?

Hey, folks, folks,
can you knock it off,
please?

Can you knock it off a little?

Okay, fellas.

I know from Mr. Ogilvie
here that you're late
for practice,

so I'm gonna make
this as short as I can.

Now, first of all,
who was responsible

for driving that van here?

What did you guys do,
take turns or something
like that?

Okay, we'll get
back to that later.

Who does that van belong to?

Okay, fellas,
here's what we're
going to do.

We're going to run
a tracer on that vehicle

to find out if
there's a problem here.

And I'm gonna ask
that everybody remain
here in the lobby

until we get this thing
straightened out.

Come on! Give me a break, man!

What'd we do?

Okay, one last question.

Who's your chaperone here?

You mean our coach?

Yeah, your coach. Who is he?

He's not here right now.

Get him.

Right now?

Right now.

What's he going to do?

Where's he going to go?

What about lunch?

We're gonna have
lunch in the joint

because that's
where we're going...
The joint.

God.

Hey, thanks a lot.

Hey, Michael.

Hey, Michael Leak.

Michael?

Kelly?

Yeah. What's going on?

Not much.
What are you
doing here?

Playing baseball with
a team called the Bears.

Got a game out here.

In Houston?

Yeah.

Thought I'd be a nice guy
and stop by and say hi.

That's great.

It's just a... It's just a game.

No, I mean it's great
that you stopped by.

Your cigarette.

So you're part of a team, huh?

Yeah.

What position are you playing?

Playing left.

Left field, huh?

I look different, don't I?

How's your mom?

She's okay.

You look a lot like her.

So they say.

Come on, Mike. I'm late.

Hey, I'll just, um,
sort of split.

Uh, take it easy.

Hi, Ruth.

I want you to meet
my kid Kelly
from California.

Hey, no kidding?

What are you doing out here?

Just visiting.

That's great.

Come on, Mike. You promised.

Nice seeing you, Kelly.

Hey, uh, listen, Michael.

We need a coach.

What?

The team. We need a coach.

Mike.

Hey, listen, I just...
I'm working full time
here now.

How long is it gonna take?

The game's on Sunday.

Okay, you got a coach.
What else can I do for you?

The team's in trouble
back at the hotel.

How could they
get in trouble
at a hotel?

You don't know the Bears.

Stop that! Stop that!
Stop that right now!

I can't do anything
about it. Really.

I can't do anything.

Please, give us a little time.

We worked hard
all season
and I think...

Put out that butt, honky! Now!

Give me a break,
will you?

Could you help me out here?

Why don't you
just go talk to her?

Hi.

I'm Coach Leak.

Oh, look, let's, uh,
let's talk outside.

It's my old man.

Look, just so you know,
I don't intend to stand
in the way of their game.

Whatever happened on the road,

I take it you weren't with them.

No.

Well, whatever happened,
it's not my jurisdiction.

So long as they have an adult,

the van checks out,

I figure let's get them
to the game so that
can have a good time.

All right.

So, you got tickets to the game? No.

Well, I'm gonna
see what I can do.

Oh.

Thanks. Okay, take care
of yourself.

Yeah.

Everything's okay.

Dear, Looper,

nobody even knew
that Kelly had a father.

I don't think
they like each other.

Your pal, Tanner Boyle.

I don't know if
anybody told you now,

but we really
don't need a coach.

We just need
somebody to go onto
the field with us.

Okay.

So, uh, we're gonna
warm up for a while,

and make sure
we're in good shape.

Okay. I'm just going
to go on over here and...

If you all need me,
just holler.

I'll hit some out.

All right! Let's go!

Let's get 'em. All right.

Hi.

- Come on, Carmen.
- Right down the pipe.

Good pitching, Carmen.
Good pitching.

Come on, Carmen.
Let's go. Come on.

Hey, fellows, wait.

Time out. Just a second.

Hey, Kelly! Come on!

You know, I might
be a little, uh,
you know, rusty.

Just so you think I'm not trying to bean
you or anything, you know.

Just throw the ball.

Yeah.

Here we go again.

Come on. Let's get going.

That's the way.
Get it over.
Get it over.

Okay.
You got it. You got it.

I got it! I got it!

What, are you trying
to kill me over here?

Go for it, Jose.

What the...

Oh!

How could I miss that?

Come on, Miguel.
You got it.

Aw, come on!

I got it! I got it!

Get the ball, Feldman.

Get the ball, Jose.

It's your ball!

Get the goddamn ball, Feldman!

You get it! You hit it!

You turkeys can play
by yourselves. God!

Oh, I'll get it!

Come on. Get it over, Carmen.

Let's have some pitch.
Come on, Tanner.
Let's go!

Come on, Tanner.
Let's go.

Come on, Carmen!

Now, come on!

Come on, Carmen,
right down the pipe.
Let's go.

Put it right in there.
Let's go. Let's go.

Come on, Carmen.
Let's go right down
the pipe.

Carmen!
Carmen,
what are you doing?

He's got to play.

You spazzie wop!

Dumb spaz!

What are you
trying to do, hit me?

- Cool it, man.
- He can't even pitch!

Tanner!

We don't need you!
Get off the field! Cool it! Cool it!

- I will kill you!
- Leave me alone!

Oh, God.

I'm going to kill you!

Ow!

Get off of me! Get off of me!

I mean it. Get off of me.

Aw! My stomach!
Get off of my stomach!

I can't take it.
Get off of my stomach.

Knock it off!

Hey, you guys...

What do you say?
You done practicing yet?

I don't want to rush you.

I'm in no hurry.

Sir, I know things
aren't looking all
that sharp right now.

As a matter of fact,
I'd say they're looking
pretty piss poor.

Sometimes we're
the Bad News Bears.

Sometimes we're just bad news,

if you know what I mean.

Well, anyway,
if there's anything
you can do

to straighten things out here,

I'm sure we'd all appreciate it.

Yeah, yeah... You bet.

Now, why don't
we get cleaned up
and go get some lunch?

I'll see what I can do.

What happened? They cut me out!

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

"When asked why
they made the journey,

"one young ball player said,
'We came for the Looper, '

"referring to their teammate
who lies in a lonely bed,

"unable to attend the game."

All right, Tanner.

All right! All right!

Hey, you guys. Hey, you guys.

Now that we've got Coach Leak,

what does this mean
for the Toros?

Bad news for the Toros!

Okay, let's go. Come on.

All right.

They're not gonna let us play.

They got another team!

They have to let us play!

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

What are you talking about?

Look!

What's going on here?

We didn't show up
in time. And they're
not gonna let us play.

Hold my glove.
You guys wait here.

Come on. A little pepper ball
in there, kid.

Very nice.

Hang on to that!

Great day, huh?

Oh, it's beautiful.

Couldn't be better.

Yeah.

Kids tell me you're
the Budweiser guy.

Yeah, yeah. Have a beer.

We're sponsoring games
like this all across
the country now.

Greatest thing in
the world for baseball,

kind of making
the American dream
come true, huh?

I'm Mike Leak,
Coach of the Bears.

Sy Orlansky.

Good to meet you, Sy.

Nice bunch
of little ball players
you got there.

I've been watching them
all morning.

Those aren't the Bears.

The Bears are over there.

You mean, uh...

Those aren't the kids
in the paper?

Those are the kids in the paper.

But then,
these... These are
the California champs.

Hell, no. Those aren't
the California champs.

There's the California champs.

I thought we were getting
the California champs.

Well.

Slaytor!

Slaytor!

Hey, kid, tell your coach to come on over here,
will you?

How you doing here, Sy?

Morrie, what's with the mix-up?

Uh... Well, there are
no mix-ups, Sy.

Uh, we had to bring
in another team,

'cause the first team
was a no show.

No show?
They're standing
right behind you.

Well, where the hell
is their coach?

- Coach's right here.
- Hi, Morrie.

I'm Mike Leak.

I've heard a lot about you.

For now...
Just... Now wait
a minute, fellows.

Here, you can have
a beer, Morrie.

Morrie.

Come here a minute.

Tell El Paso to go home.

But, Sy, they just got here.

Morrie, Morrie, listen to me.

Look at this, the morning paper.

These kids come
all the way out here
on their own

to win the prize
for their little friend.

That's a good story, Morrie.

People like a good story.

I want this team, Morrie,

the team in the paper.

It shouldn't be such
a big thing, huh?

Catch you in the Dome, Morrie.

That who we're
supposed to be playing?

Yeah, guess so.

I knew they'd be wimps.

I thought they were
sending us bears,

not pygmies.

Why don't you just shut your cruddy mouth,
ya redneck ass?

Why don't you make me,
little man.

Come on, Tanner.
Hey, cool it, man.

Don't worry.
We'll get them later.

Come on, man. Don't worry.

Little wimps.

Yeah, lookie here. Yeah, lookie.

Kids, you're going to play.

All right! Way to go!

All right! All right! A place to stay...

We still don't
have a place to stay.

Yeah, what about that?

What are we gonna do?

Tanner,
give Mr. Orlansky
a fresh beer.

You believe me if I tell
you I want these kids
to be happy?

I want you to be happy.

I want the whole
gol' darn world
to be happy.

Well, I don't know, Sy.
I've only known you
a few minutes.

What would you say if I told you

Anheuser-Busch is gonna
put you all up personally?

All right!

Hey.

Whoa! Look at this!

All right. Get down.

- Look, guys, look.
- The Astrodome!

This is serious!

We got color TV!

Oh, wow! Come on!

Hey, your room's bigger.

Hey, where are you? 224.

You can see the Dome
from our room!

Hey, Kelly!

Everybody's in 325.

Think! Think! Think! Think!

All right. All right. Way to go.

Engelberg, with you,
it's gonna take a lot
more than thinking,

but we're gonna get it done.

Surround the ball,
all right? Clear it.

Right at his chest.

Each time, right?
Once more, Carmen.

Think. Bad hop or anything...

That's it. Back to the plate.

Try to always aim at
the First Baseman's chest.

Whoa!

Once more, Carmen. Hey.

And over to first, all right?
Right through his chest.

Charge it. That's it.

Shoulder first.

Good throw.
Back at the plate.
That's it.

Get set, now.

Where are you going to begin?

First. Surround the ball.
Get set.

Come on, come on. Stay with it. Pick it up.
Pick it up.

That's it. Charge it! Charge it!

That's it. Come on. Come on.

Good throw.

That's it. Now, get set.

What you wanna do
is you get the ball,
you take one...

And off this foot.

Now take a step.

All right! Good arm.

That's it. Stay with it.

Good arm. Good arm.

What do you say,
handsome?
You wanna try it?

Let's go. Get on there. Get set.

Okay. That's it.

Good arm. We got a champ there. Lookin' good.

Get set
on the ball, all right?

Come on,
Kelly, let's go.
Give it a try.

Oh, I think I could do it.

Come on...
What do you mean
you could do it?

Let's go. Give it a try.

Let's see your arm.

All right. Come on, Rudi,
give it a shot. Let's go.

Stay down. Over the ball, right?

Get set for it.
Watch the ball now.

Come on, Carmen,
knock it down here.

Wow! Did you see that?

Wow!

One more time. Since you're playing together.
Move the ball around.

That's it. Move it to first.

Come down here, Carmen.
You wanna get...

Come on, Tanner,
hold on to those.

Come on. Get on it.

Come on, Tanner. That's it.

All right. Nice catch.

Yeah. Good throw.

- Now, let's go!
- Oh, wow!

You guys
are doing great
backing each other up.

We're cooking. Let's go.

Up, up, up!

Good arm.
Good stop, Toby.
Way to go.

All right...

Nice catch. Good arm.

All right. Keep the ball
in front of you. That's it.

This spells doom for the Toros.

Attack the ball.

Good try. Stay with it.

We'll make a shortstop
out of you, Tanner.
Let's the last thing we do.

All right!

Ahh! MIKE: All right!

Nice catch! Whoo!

Now, look, we're all
using only one hand.

You got to use two hands
when you catch...

Two hands. You wanna step into the ball
when it's in the air.

So you're catching
and throwing
in the same motion.

You catch and throw
in the same motion,
right?

One hand,
you drop the ball.
You can't handle it well.

That's why you have two hands.

Come on, Toby,
come in here
and field some.

You hit them out.

And get rid
of the cigarette
for Christ's sake.

Tell me about the catcher.

Oh, that's Chip Roberts.

He was most valuable player
three years in a row.

Um...

What about that man who just slid
into second base?

Oh, that's Mick Fincher.
Very fast.

Stole 35 bases last season.

Mmm.

Thank you.
You've been very helpful.

That's okay.
Do you need
anything else?

Uh... No. This is plenty. Yes.

Well, are you gonna
stay in Texas long?

'Cause we'd really like
to show you around some.

I'm sorry, but we leave
right after the game.

Uh, but thanks anyway.

Bye. Bye-bye.

Ooh! I'm in love.

Nice of you to stop by, Ogilvie.

Where've you been?
What's cooking?

Well...

Under normal circumstances,
I would pray for rain,

except it doesn't rain
in the Astrodome.

That good, huh?

Last season,
they were undefeated, 18-0.

Mr. Leak! Mr. Leak,

Ronzonni's
getting wilder
all the time.

He says
he's caught between
his Catfish Hunter

and his Warren Spahn.

Yeah?

We'll have to help him out, huh?

Carmen, throw me that ball.

Huh? You mean just throw it?

Yeah. Throw it in here.

Appears to be
all right, huh? Mmm-hmm.

Let's see it again.

Come again. One more.

Hey, hey, hey. Come on.

Come on, come on. Just hit me right here
in the glove once more.

Come on. All right.

Now listen.

Cut out the bullshit windups.

Forget about
Warren Spahn
and Catfish Hunter.

I want to see you
throw the ball
like Carmen Ronzonni.

Step up there
and throw the ball.

Come on, Mike,
get down now.
Give him a big target.

Big target.

Just look at the glove
and throw the ball.

That's all it is. Throw the ball right
into the glove.

All right! Hey!

That's it. That's it. Come on.

Throw the ball right to the big target now,
Mike.

Always give him
a good target
to throw to.

Hey, hey! Baby!

All right?

All right?

All right! Keep practicing.

Give him a good target
all the time.

That's great!

You're getting it now.

Phew.

- Right here, Kelly.
- Right here.

Come on, Rudi,
attack it, attack it.

Back him up.
That's it.
That's it.

Good throw. Good throw.

Come on.
That's it, Miguel.
Attaboy.

All right! What's with
the cigarette business?

That's it. Stay with it.
Come on, Ahmad.

Attaboy.

You know, you look silly.

Who do you think
you are, my father?

You angry at me for something?

Because if you are angry
at me for something

then I want to know about it.

What do you want from me?

You wanted me to be
the coach of this team,
so I'm the coach.

Now you want to call
this whole thing quits,
or what?

Put out the cruddy
cigarette, Kelly.

Tell me what
do you want me to do?

I want nothing!

You want me to go?

Put out the cigarette.

Listen, pally, I'm not
out here for my health.
I'm out here for you.

Yeah, you sure?

Come on, you guys! Back up!

You don't
do that to me!
You got that?

Come on! Let's have some. I said, "You don't
do that to me."

Get out of the way
before you get hurt.

Hey, did you hear that?
I said, "No one
does that to me."

Come on. Move your asses.
Let's go!

We have a game to win. Hey, I don't need you.

Hwy, did you hear that?
I don't need you!

All right, good catch.

I don't need any of you!

Good throw, Ahmad.

Go! Did you hear that?
I don't need you!

And I don't need any of you!

All right,
we're moving now.
We're cooking.

Hey, you're Kelly Leak,
aren't you?

I hear you're pretty good.

Well, they think
they're hot and shit

'cause they got
their pictures
in the paper.

Everyone knows
they're just a bunch of
flamin' Hollywood faggots.

Move.

Yes, sir.

Have you seen their coach?

Yeah. Now they got a big faggot to go along
with all the little faggots.

You're dead, faggot.
You're a dead man.

The temperature today
hit a high of 65 degrees.

Anybody seen Kelly?

Well, his stuff
is still in his room.

Well, is he playing or not?

Hey, don't worry about Kelly.
He's cool. Don't worry.

Shut up, we're next!

Quiet.

Sunday's charity game
at the Astrodome
is almost a sellout.

But that doesn't seem
to bother a group of
little boys from California.

Sheila Lansing has the story.

I'm standing
in a downtown hotel,

where the California champs,
the Bears,

who are preparing
for their big game Sunday
at the Astrodome.

All right.

I talked with
some of the players
about the game.

Ahmad? Yeah.

All right.

How do you feel about
playing in such a big place
as the Astrodome?

Well, Sheila,
we've worked hard
all season.

And I think we've got
what it takes to do the job.

Do I sound like that?

Our base running's
coming along real good.

So I'd have to say
I'm real positive
about the game.

We're expecting
a real good game.

Boy, do I sound stupid.

Hey, hey. I'm next.

Next I'll talk to right fielder,

Miguel Agilar.

All right!

What happened? I was next.

How do you feel about
playing in the Astrodome?

Miguel?

This is Sheila Lansing
in downtown Houston.

Good shot.

Listen, hard-ass, you stuck me with
a bunch of kids down a hotel

that say they can't
play without you.

What do you want
to do about that?

Huh?

You gonna play or you gonna quit
or what?

Don't you think your friends have
a right to know?

Look, I'm sorry
I got hot at you.

This whole thing's
about something else.

Maybe we should
think about that.

Maybe we should
deal with the fact

that we're just a couple
of strangers, you know?

You didn't recognize me
at the Plant.

You didn't know
it was me, did you?

Listen, it's been a long time.

It's been eight years.

You know why I know that? You know why I know
it's been eight years?

Because on the day you left,

you gave me this
little blue bicycle.

I was five years old,

I was a little punk kid.

Yeah, you gave me the bicycle thinking
if I accepted it,

I'd accept the deal.

Well, you were wrong.

I didn't accept that bicycle.

It's 8 years old,

it's untouched,
and it's still
in my basement.

Listen, you want to be
your own man, right?

Well, you got
to remember one thing.

Being angry at me for the mistakes
I've made

ain't gonna change
what happened.

Maybe.

Tell me something.

If you didn't need a coach,

would you have looked me up?

You should think about that.

Dear, Looper,
today's the game.

I hope we win.

But it'll be hard without Kelly.

Your pal, Tanner Boyle.

Miguel, what's it like?

Yeah. What's it like?

What about Kelly?
Did anyone talk to him?

Hey, hey, hey.
He'll be here. Don't worry.
He'll be here.

Hey, Bears,
you got five minutes.

God... Well, when's he coming?

Soon.

How do you know that?

Hey, hey, hey. Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.

You guys play baseball
all the time, don't you?

Yeah, but not without Kelly.

How are we gonna
play without him?

The same way
you play with him...

The best that you can.

Come on. Let's go.
Pull your chairs up.

Let's get this straight.

All we've got
to do is concentrate
on what we worked on.

What we've worked on
was thinking, right?

We've worked on
using our heads,
all right?

That's where our skills are.

You can use your
head to the plate,

you can use your head
to the field on defense.

Before Ogilvie
reads off the lineup,

anybody got anything
they want to say?

I got something to say.

We all know that Timmy
couldn't come with us,

but if we go out there

and win one for the Looper...

He'll know about it,
and he'll be happy.

Kelly! Kelly!

Okay, Bears, let's go.

Well, what are we waiting for?

All right!

I knew you would be here.

What does this mean
to the Toros?

Bad news for the Toros!

Okay! Let's go!

Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!

Ladies and gentlemen,

as a special
between-games attraction
for you this afternoon,

the Houston Astrodome in connection with the Anheuser-Busch Corporation

is presenting a special
four-inning game

between the undefeating
champions of Texas,
the Houston Toros,

and the pride of the West Coast,

the California Bears!

Those are the kids
I was telling you about.

Yeah, yeah.

Whoa!

Wow!

Get them up!

Oh!

Nice throw.
Nice throw.
Let's go.

I'm never gonna make it.

Hold on there a minute, son.

There you go.

My God. You just saved my life.

All right!

Hey, Ronzonni.

Let's go, boy!

Let's play ball!

Leading off
for the Toros,

Second Baseman Leon Waterson.

Come on. Hey, batter.

Strike.

Strike two!

Strike three! You're out!

All right, Carmen!

All right!

All right,
you guys, we got one.

I did it!

You did it!

All right!

Way to go, Tanner.

Let's go. Let's go.

You can do it, Carmen.
You can do it.

Strike!

Hey, Mac! What do you say?

All right, Carmen!
Nobody gets on base.
Come on.

Come on.

Oh, come on.
Play at second.
Second!

All right, Ahmad,
way to use your head.

Way to go.

What do you say now, Frenchy?
What do you say, kid?

All right. Mr. Leak, there's
a fast man on first.

Keep your eye
on him, Carmen.

Take your time, Carmen.
Come on. Bear down.

Oh! All right, all right,
all right. Go ahead! Run!

He's going!

Oh, no! Hey!

Tanner, did you
get it in the shin? Come on.

Are you okay?

I hope it didn't
hurt the baby bear.

Come on, guys.

Come on, get back
to your positions.
Come on.

Just let me play!

Hey, wait a second.

How's your leg,
is it all right? Yeah.

I don't want you
to play if you're hurt.

Are you sure you're
gonna be able to play? Yeah.

Maybe I'll bring
Ogilvie out here,
put him on short, huh?

All right, let's go.

Okay, batter. All right, Carmen!

Chip Roberts.

You can't throw him a fast ball.

Carmen,
number three,
babe. Three.

He can't throw him
a change-up, either.

A two-run home run.

At the end of one half inning,

the score is
the Houston Toros, 2,

the California Bears, nothing.

Way to go, Carmen. Way to pitch.

Way to use your head
out there, Ahmad.

We'll get it back.
We'll get it back.
No sweat.

Show them. Let's go.

Use your head
up there, Tanner.

Shortstop
Tanner Boyle.

Pitching for the Toros...
Ed Simpson.

Hey,
give him a toothpick.

Aim at my shoelaces.

You better shut up, you redneck.

Okay, boy,
come on now,
let's play now.

Come on! Shut up!

Come on, big fella.
Let's play ball.

Dumbass.

Okay! Come on, let's go!

Come on, Tanner, now think.

Come on, now. Come on! Hustle!

Come on!
Come on, hustle!
Hustle!

You're out!

With one out, the batter,

Center Fielder
Ahmad Abdul Rahim.

All right now, Ahmad
Come on, man. Think.

Give this guy a look.
Give him a look.

Come on, man.
This guy ain't got nothing.

He's out!

All right, Michael,
you're the boss
in there now.

Be tough. Let's go.

Hey, look
what we got here.

We got a big enough target.

Don't pay any attention to him.

- Come on, Mike.
- Batter! Batter!

Run, you big lard-ass!

Out! All right!

After one inning,
the score remains

the Houston Toros, 2,
the California Bears,
nothing.

Give him that mask,
Ogilvie.

All right, Mike.
Big target now.
Let's go.

Come on, Carmen,
burn it in. Burn it in.

Ball four. Take your base.

Oh, man. That was a strike!

Same place. Same place, catch.

Bear down. Think. Throw strikes.

Ah!

What is this,
a baseball game
or the 4th of July?

That runs the score
to the Houston Toros, 5,

the Bears, nothing.

After an inning and a half,

Protect yourself. Fire 'em in there.
Let's go!

All right, Miguel.
Come on, you're the boss.

Tag up. Tag up.

Go, go, go!

Throw the ball!

He's out!

Easy out.

All right!

Okay, I'm sorry. But the game's called.
We're out of time.

Time!

Game is called.

It's not over yet. I'm sorry.
It's all over.

It's ain't over. I can't help it.

Let's go home,
fellas. That's it.

Can they do that?

No, they can't do that.

Hey.

Hey, you guys, where you going?

What about the Looper?

We're not finished!

You said a four-inning game.

You didn't play fast enough.

Don't play what faster?
A game is a game.

The game is called. Who's ahead?

He's ahead.

You win the game.

Oh... We won!

The game is over. That's all.

Let the kids play
the game, will you?

Why are you shutting it off for?

We're not finished!

The game isn't over yet!

They said four innings!

- How you doing?
- Hey.

It's Bob Watson
and Cesar Cedeno!

Hey, Cesar!

- What's up, fellas?
- All right!

We were supposed
to have four innings,

and they only let us have two.

How's your game going?

We'll meet you
in the park, Morrie.

Sonny.

We'll settle this in the park.

You guys got a lot
of pull around here,
I see.

Hey, you guys. Look at Tanner.

Look at Tanner.

All right!

Go! Take that.

Leave me alone!
The game ain't over.

Here we go again, you guys.

You're out!

You're out!

the score remains 5 to nothing.

You better
back up, sucker.
I feel good.

Strike!

You feel good, huh?

Strike two.

Let's go.

I feel better than ever.

Run like a butterfly,
sting like a bee,

I rounded second
and I'm standing
on three!

You're a hitter now.

All right, pal. Let's go.

The score after three innings...

Ball...
Somebody hit
the ball, will you?

All right!

Okay, calm down.

Phew!

Run, run, run!

Mr. Leak,
Fincher on first again.

Time out.

Keep that ball
under your glove,
all right?

You just keep looking
at Engelbuns for a little
bit of a signal.

All right?
When he leads off,
tag him out.

Let's go!
Come on, come on, come on...

Come on, Carmen!

Hold your breath.

Get up! Get up!
Get up! That's it!

I got him! He's out.

I got him!

Come on. Keep alive out there!

In the bottom of the fourth,

the score remains...
The Houston Toros, 5,

the California Bears, 2.

Last inning, you clods.
Let's get 'em!

All right!

Base run, base run.

Let's go.

Now, come on.

What more do you want?

Ogilvie!

Come on!
You're a hitter, Ogilvie.
Let's go!

All right!

Out! Hold up.

Toby! In the air,
you go halfway.

If it goes through, take third.

Come on, you're supposed to be
the home run king.

Strike one!

Come on, Kelly, you're the boss!

Come on, Kelly, put me in!

Let's see something.

Let's go.

Hold up!

Way to go.

All right, handsome. Let's go.

There's one.

Strike one.

I'm going to hit it.

Strike two!

Come on, handsome!
I want to see you down here.

Strike three. You're out!

Toby, two outs, two down.

You go in on anything.

I want to see something.

Bring them in. Move them around!

You're the tying one. Let's go!

Come on, Simp.
Strike him out.

You want a runner?

All right, stay on that bag.

- Stay awake, Kel.
- Let's get him out.

Two down.

All right,
heads up now, Carmen.

You're the winning run.

What do you say, Carmen?

Hey! That's what
we're here for, right?

Go!

We want a hit!

We want a hit!

Ball!

Come on, Carmen.

Stay awake!

Everybody, go.

Come on.

Come on, Carmen!

Come on now!

Put it in here.

Go! Go! Come on.

Throw the ball!

Go!

Go home!

Go! Go!

Come on!

Safe!

Hey, we did
all right, didn't we?

Yeah.

Hey, uh...

Remember when you asked me
if I would have...

...stopped by if we didn't
need a coach?

I was wrong. I would have.

All right.
