A strong drama we live through a strong struggle to achieve glory by the Indian team Cleveland, who is back to compete after losing in the ALCS last year. The team seem determined to reach the world chain, but they must face Rachel Phelps again when he buys the team and threatens to tear the team apart. The challenges come back to face special team Jake, who is returning to win the World Cup and compensate for that loss. The team replaces the pain they suffered last year.
There has rarely been such a steep and strange decline between a movie and its sequel as the one between the fast, silly original and the dismal, boring Major League II.

You've got to know something is terribly wrong when Bob Uecker's performance is amongst a movie's few high points.
I expect a certain number of contrivances in a baseball movie, especially one that's not meant to be taken seriously, but nothing prepared me for the sheer avalanche of formulas and cliches that fill the screen in Major League II.
