Here's a link to a "Cardboard Connection" web page which does a pretty good job of listing baseball cards of baseball movies.

The mini set for the 1989 movie "Major League" didn't make the "Cardboard Connection" list.
So, here's another link:

Michael O'Keefe aka Danny Noonan of Caddyshack in The Slugger's Wife. Topps made the card as a prop for the movie. Card has regular back with stats and bio but is numbered # 800. No 1984 Topps set is complete with out Darryl Palmer :). Tough to find

This card is actually a Uruguayan card from 1925 / 26 I believe.
