1. In what year does this movie take place (when Smalls is young)?

Answer: 1962

It is on the Founder's Day cake. Also, at the beginning, Smalls talks about the "all-time greatest moment in the history of sports" in 1932 when Babe Ruth became a legend. He says that 30 years later Benny became a neighborhood legend.

2. About how long before school let out did Smalls move into the neighborhood?

Answer: 2 weeks

"I moved to the neighborhood about 2 weeks before school let out."

6. What letter(s) is/are on Kenny's (the pitcher's) baseball cap?

Answer: KC

"The 'KC' on Kenny's hat represented the Kansas City Monarchs of the Negro League. It is my guess that, the Negro League was defunct by 1962, that the hat had belonged to Kenny's father." (Thanks to robmeister for this info!)
