    • Trivia
      The character of Hank Murphy, the Angels' owner, is loosely based on owner, actor and country music star Gene Autry, right down to the cowboy hat. Autry passed away October 1998. When the Anaheim Angels won the 2002 World Series, they dedicated their win to Autry.
    • Goofs
      Though released in 1994, the film is based on the 1993 season as the Detroit Tigers and Milwaukee Brewers are still wearing their respective uniforms of that season. Also the Oakland A's are wearing their all Green Cap with a white "A's" on the cap. In 1994 the A's away cap was change to an all green crap with a gold "A's" logo on the cap.
    • Quotes

      Roger Bomman: God... if there is a God... if you're a man or a woman... if you're listening, I'd really, really like a family. My dad says that will only happen if the Angels win the pennant. The baseball team, I mean. So, maybe you can help them win a little. Amen. Oh, a-woman, too.

    Sometimes you can forget how enjoyable a film is if you don't watch it enough.

    That was definitely the case with Angels in the Outfield. It was on TV last night and I believe I hadn't seen the film since my sophomore year in high school and I'm now in my 4th year of college. Although the film has many flaws, it is just so touching that you can't help but sit down, watch it, and enjoy yourself. It is also hilarious. Danny Glover's ranting is just so over the top that you can't help but laugh out loud at him at most time. It adds to the film and I'm sure it's exactly what the director wanted. You actually feel for the characters in the film even though the development isn't the best. A must see. I highly recommend.
