A series of visual gags about baseball. One running gag has an angry fan screaming "Kill the ump!" Be careful what you wish for.....
Direction
Avery's timing: gag density that'd exhaust modern animators.
Editing
Six minutes, zero fat, infinite elbow drops.
Sound
Jerry Mann's triple-role voice work carries the absurdity.

Director
Tex Avery
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Pinto Colvig, the pitcher's voice, was also Goofy and the original Bozo the Clown.
Avery made this during his MGM peak, after being fired from Disney for 'ruining' gags with too much surrealism.
