Short description

Lindsay is stuck in the middle of her relationship with Ben and his passion for the Boston Red Sox.

What's left behind the scenes

One scene from the film was shot during a game between the Boston Red Sox and the Texas Rangers (September 4, 2004). Unfortunately, the Boston team (around which the events of the film unfold) lost that game 6-8.
This ended the Red Sox's 10-game winning streak, and the press subsequently blamed the film crew, believing they had distracted the players.
The next time the film crew went to a game was on September 16, 2004. The Boston team managed to win this game against the Tampa Bay Devil Rays 11-4. On that day, Drew Barrymore's character runs across the entire field to the stands where Jimmy Fallon is located. This scene was filmed after the game. The remaining people in the stands accordingly acted as extras.
The final scene was filmed on October 27, 2004, at the game between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Boston Red Sox. During the celebration of another success by the Boston players on the field, the main characters of the film ran out to join the players' joy.
17 participants of the Boston Baseball League were selected to play the roles of bench players.
The warm jacket worn by Barrymore's character throughout the film became incredibly popular among fans of the Boston team a week before the film's premiere. There were huge lines in stores, and almost the entire batch that arrived on the market was sold out within a week.
