Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In which state does "The Sandlot" take place?

Answer: California

They never mention living in California in the movie, but if you look at the license plates when Scotty meets the boys at Vincent's Drug Store, they say California on them. In the end of the movie, Benny plays for the Los Angeles Dodgers.

2. In Benny's dream, Babe Ruth tells Benny to jump over the fence to get the ball.

Answer: True

Another thing the Babe tells him is, "There's heroes and there's legends. Heroes get remembered, but legends never die. Follow your heart kid, and you'll never go wrong."

3. What do the Sandlot boys call Scotty?

Answer: Smalls

Smalls is Scotty's last name. Almost all of the boys have nicknames. The only one with a nickname that isn't part of his real name is Yeah-Yeah.

4. What was the only hat that Scotty owned?

Answer: Fish hat

He got a Cubs hat from Benny, after Benny told him to throw the fish hat in the fireplace. In the end of the movie, when Scotty becomes the Dodgers' announcer, he is still wearing the fish hat.

5. Porky is the nickname of Hamilton Porter.

Answer: False

His real nickname was Ham. Ham grew up to be a wrestler. They called him The Great Hambino.

6. When Scotty first moves to the valley, how many weeks of school did he say were left?

Answer: 2 weeks

He tells his mom that there is no time to make friends before summer. So before he goes to play baseball, he plays with his Erector Set.

7. Mr. Mertle was blinded when he got hit in the head with a fast ball.

Answer: True

When he batted, he would crowd the plate so the strike zone would disapear. He said, "Pitchers hate that!" Unfortunately, he was blinded for the rest of his life, so he had to stop playing baseball.

8. When Mr. Mertle gives Scotty the signed baseball, who signed it and what year was it signed?

Answer: 1927 Yankees

Mr. Mertle says that Scotty needs the ball more than he does. At first he asks if Scotty is in trouble, and then he finds out the ball that was ruined was signed by Babe Ruth. Benny is amazed with all the famous names on the baseball Mr. Mertle gave Scotty, like Babe Ruth.

9. What was the first thing the Sandlot boys used to try to get the Babe Ruth signed ball?

Answer: stick

Their plans didn't work out very well. They had 5 failed attemps.
The only plan I didn't mention is when Yeah-Yeah went over the top of the fence to try to get the ball in Mr. Mertles yard.

10. Yeah-Yeah's real name is Alan McClennan.

Answer: True

The never call him that, except when Benny is introducing Scotty to the guys in front of Vincent's Drug Store.
