Trivia
- The main characters The Batter and The Catcher are the same characters appearing in Hi, Neighbor! (2014). Also, the Bank Robber who appears during the end credits, appear in Meatball Assassino (2016).
- Candace Ostler, who plays the Catcher is left handed. There were no lefty gloves, so she had to learn how to throw righty. Editor Chad Halvorsen taught her in about fifteen minutes.
- The title card is an alternation of the Locksmiths team logo on the team shirts.
- The opposing team, MKE, is the rental company of cinematographer Jon Kline.
- Nearly every actor on screen plays a player and a fan in the stands. In certain cases, the film cuts to and from the same actor.
- The Batter is named "Smith" after Firmament Films regular Julia Smith, who was unable to attend this year's filming.
- The foul ball tipped by the Batter is computer generated, but the ball that hits the Drunk (Chad Halvorsen) on the head is genuine. It took several takes to get the appropriate bounce.
