Child actor Alfred Lutter III's last movie after a short but distinguished career working with Woody Allen and Martin Scorsese.
The Bad News Bears was about a terrible boys' baseball team with an alcoholic coach. In the 1977 sequel, they're so good that they're going to the Astrodome to play.
The overweight kid from the original movie lost weight, and good for him, but they replaced him in the sequel. The others all seemed to be there except Tatum O'Neal and they added Jimmy Baio.
William Devane as Jackie Earle Haley's estranged father who pretends to be their coach.
The original movie was about how kids shouldn't be abused and pressured to compete. This one had nothing to say, although the racist kid seemed more racist than before.
