• Continuity: In the Yankees game, Ken Dixon's first at bat is as a left handed hitter. But when he hits the grand slam off of Monty, the TV shows a right handed batter hitting the home run. He could be a switch hitter, but he wouldn't face the same pitcher from both sides of the plate.
  
  
• Factual errors: In the opening baseball scene when Brewster is facing Rudy, he is wearing a batting helmet with ear covers over both ears indicating he is a switch hitter.

• Plot holes: It is often regarded that Brewster using the "upside down airplane" stamp to mail a postcard is seen as a violation of the terms set down in the money spending clause the film revolves around. However, he was using the stamp for its intended use, so this wouldn't go against the terms of the will.
