If good things happen to good people, does it follow that bad things happen to bad people or do bad things happen to help people become better? In this third movie of the Sandlot trilogy, the famous and very egocentric baseball player Tommy Santorelli of the Los Angeles Dodgers is knocked unconscious during batting practice and wakes up 29 years in the past. As a 12-year-old boy with the intellect and memories of a 41-year-old, Tommy finds himself surrounded by old friends at a long-forgotten sandlot and completely confused about whether it's all some kind of trauma-induced dream or a second chance to re-live his life. His initial fury is gradually replaced by a grudging acceptance and the realization that he's been given a rare opportunity to spend time with his dying mother. Tommy's disdain for the local sandlot players and his conceited attitude put him at odds with his old friends, but his top-notch baseball skills eventually win their admiration and secure him a place on the team. As Tommy unwillingly assumes a teaching role, he begins to understand the importance of teamwork and mentorship and the Sandlot team improves dramatically. In the end, Tommy is forced to make a personal choice between friendship and fame; a choice that will impact the team's ability to win the Little League Tournament, determine the very fate of the local sandlot, and greatly affect Tommy's own future.
