I thought it was pretty good.

Seems to be more family oriented than the previews indicated.

Always good to see Christopher Lloyd.

Decided to watch it because nothing else was really on and I wanted to see Kirsten Storms in a new series, and was plesantly surprised. Pretty predictable, but it was better than I expected.

I actually meant to watch this and completely forgot. Does anyone know if the episode they're airing on Tuesday is a new episode or a repeat of the pilot?

This really wasn't too bad. My recording cut off during the last few minutes - what happened in the conference room at the end after Pete got up there?

Thanks.

I hope they cancel this soon because I'm tried of seeing commercials for it. The show just seems like a rip off of the movie rookie of the year. Screw this show.

You haven't even seen the show, so how do you know if it's ripping off a movie?

Kirsten Storms

Too bad this show is up against Scrubs. Pretty good pilot, but by the looks of next week's episode, it's already out of ideas. "Batboy plays pivotal role in a baseball scandal ripped from the headlines... again"

Dean Cain. Nice choice.

Thanks.
He ratted out Baines (sp?) and got fired as the batboy. Baines was put on indefinite suspension pending a league investigation. Dean Cain made a cameo at the batboy's house, explained he "persuaded" the team and the administration to rehire the batboy, then talked to his mom to persuade her. Mom disapproved but granny stepped in and helped win her over. Cut to the next game, batboy takes his spot on the 3rd base line, and the crowd boos him, except for a sign that says "you did the right thing" held up by the girl that wrote her number on the baseball.

I figured he ratted him out, I was just wondering how he got his job back - thanks.

Is this the second episode airing tonight, or a repeat of the first episode?
