Synopsis by Bhob Stewart
This sports comedy is the third inning for the "Major League" series after Major League (1989) grossed $50 million and Major League II delivered a batting average of $30 million in 1994. After Roger Dorn (Corbin Bernsen), who owns the Minnesota Twins and the minor-league South Carolina Buzz, talks retiring minor-league player Gus Cantrell (Scott Bakula) into managing the bad-news Buzz, Gus takes his underdog team toward an eventual confrontation with the powerful champs, the Twins. In addition to Dorn, the other series characters making a return are Taka Tanakia (Takaaki Ishibashi) and Pedro Cerrono (Dennis Haysbert).
