The Flintstones Little Big League is a 1990 animated film that follows the beloved Stone Age characters as they embark on an adventure in professional baseball. The movie is based on the famous cartoon series, The Flintstones, created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. The story revolves around Fred Flintstone, who works at Slaterock Gravel Company with his best friend Barney Rubble. Along with their wives Wilma and Betty, Fred and Barney also belong to a local softball team called the Bedrock Brontos.

One day, while attending a Bedrock Brontos game, the General Manager of the major league baseball team, the "Mr. Big," discovers Fred's impressive catch during the home run ball, and offers him a contract to play for his team. The contract comes with the stipulation that if Fred can help Mr. Big’s team, the Buzzards, win against the rival Giants, he will become the new owner of both teams.

Fred eagerly accepts the offer and leaves behind his family and friends to fulfill his dream of becoming a major league baseball player. However, things don't go as planned for Fred as he soon realizes that he is not as skilled as he thought he was, and the Buzzards are constantly losing games.

As Fred struggles to find his footing in the professional league, his friends and family back in Bedrock hatch a plan to help him out. Seeing that Fred is out of his depth, Barney seeks advice from the legendary baseball player, Babe Ruth (whom Barney has in fact merely seen in a dream), who gives him tips on how to improve Fred’s game.

With help from his friends and some unexpected allies, Fred begins to regain his confidence on the field. He also discovers that Mr. Big is cheating, and with the help of his friends, exposes his plan to bribe the opposing team to throw the game.

In the end, Fred and his team, the Buzzards, earn a chance to play in the championship game against the Giants. The game is a nail-biting experience, filled with twists and turns. The film ends with a heartwarming celebration as Fred's team wins the game, and he is crowned the new owner of both the Buzzards and the Giants.
