I never figured out why Tom Selleck didn't do better in the movies. He was excellent in Three Men and a Baby and this performance goes at least a little bit beyond the "playing Tom Selleck" thing. I could say more if the ABC Family Channel hadn't cut a 108-minute movie to fit a one-hour time slot. It was like watching an extended trailer. I guess ABC assumes its viewers have short attention spans, or felt it was really, really important to get a rerun of "Whose Line It It, Anyway?" into the schedule. P.s. The last scene where Mr. Baseball has caught on with the Detroit Tigers is a hoot. If you know how wretched the Tigers have been in the decade-plus since this movie came out, you'd think management would have hired Tom Selleck just to sell some tickets.
