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). ~ Bhob Stewart, Rovi

Daniel M. Kimmel, Variety
This third outing in the Major League series... won't set any box office records [b]ut it's an amusing film in its own right...
-
Phil Villarreal, Arizona Daily Star
The final bloop single for a tired series.

Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com
And you thought it couldn't get worse than Part 2.

James Sanford, Kalamazoo Gazette
The drabness of the leads sets the tone for the picture, which is not so much awful as it is awfully dull. ...as invigorating as watching Saran Wrap unroll.

Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com
Unwatchable drivel.
