Despite an enjoyable turn from Brittany Murphy, the clichéd plot (local poor boy pitches his way to the Major League) ensures that's the best this forgettable teen fodder can hope for.

Because I'm a baseball fan, I tend to be an easy mark for baseball-themed movies, but something as badly focused and feebly scripted as Summer Catch just makes me wish for the Fall.

When it comes to funny business, Tollin's got game, and he makes the most of some talented supporting players on his bench.

Not even a cast of fresh-faced acting hotshots can give flavour to this bland and undistinguished teen sporting romance.

This is the WB version of a baseball movie. Everyone is young, toned, sexually active and agonizes over their future.

Maybe the filmmakers figured that the audience for Summer Catch is too young to have seen Bull Durham.

[An] awful light drama.

It's a movie that should have been called on account of boredom.

Big chunks of plot seem to be missing, as if left on the editing-room floor so that director Mike Tollin, in his feature debut, can get to yet another inspiring speech.
