In Roy Hobb's final at bat, the first pitch is called a ball by the umpire, but the play-by-play man on the soundtrack calls it a strike. The Closed Captions have the Umpire calling strike as well as the radio play-by-play man. The Umpire also seems to have his calls mixed up, with no motion for the first "strike", and then a strike motion for the 2nd pitch a ball, which makes it obvious this was re-edited to accommodate the happier ending This would match the original ending, where Roy Hobbs would be striking out to the new Nebraska farm boy John Roades.
