Playing with the Boys debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 on August 16, 1986 and peaked at the #60 position.
This song was also used for many scenes in the 1990 beach volleyball Side Out film featuring C. Thomas Howell, Peter Horton and Courtney Thorne-Smith.
Per Loggins's memoir, the song was a hit among gay nightclubs. Spin magazine's interviewer Jonathan Cohen called it "a sort of gay anthem".
