The Benchwarmers

In an interview with Howard Stern, Adam Sandler said he specifically cast David Spade and Rob Schneider to force them to work together in order to smooth over a rift that the two had with each other.

After the opposing team in the finals of the tournament let Nelson get a hit, when rounding third base, he does not touch it on his way to home plate. Because of this, the home run should not have counted. However, in order for the base runner to be called out, the opposing team must challenge the play. The proper procedure would be before throwing the next pitch, throw the ball to the base that was missed. Then announcing to the umpire that the base runner failed to touch the base. If this is not done before the next pitch then the base runner is safe.

Originally, the end credit sequence had a series of alternate takes, outtakes and deleted scenes. These were removed for the DVD release and were restored for its airings on the STARZ Network.
