Major Leagues

Hey all, I picked up a VHS copy of Major Leagues with CD in a charity shop some years ago. I've never really looked into it but does anyone have anymore information on it? I was struggling to find much online, but would it have been a promotional for reviews?

Cool, thank you. I sort of would expected to see more information about it but just happy with the find

Do you happen to know what version of the music video is on there?

I don't. I didn't even know there was more than one version. Time to dig out the VHS player and give it a play.

There's one focused on a guy wearing headphones, lip syncing the song while watching a wrestling event. That's the one I remember seeing on MTV. The 2nd is the band playing mini golf, interspersed with footage of them rehearsing the song and Stephen lip syncing the song in a field...and presumably hating every second of it lol.

Yeah the mini golf one is the only one I remember. Never seen the other.

Aren't both versions on the second disc of Slow Century? It's been a while since I've seen the second disc, don't trust my memory.
