Take Me Out To The Ball Game Page #8

Synopsis: The Wolves baseball team gets steamed when they find they've been inherited by one K.C. Higgins, a suspected "fathead" who intends to take an active interest in running the team. But K.C. turns outs to be a beautiful woman who really knows her baseball. Second baseman Dennis Ryan promptly falls in love. But his playboy roommate Eddie O'Brien has his own notions about how to treat the new lady owner and some unsavory gamblers have their own ideas about how to handle Eddie.

Hold it!

Hold it! Enough!

He's safe!

There they are, Officer!

Wait a minute. What's the hurry?

Stop him somebody! Denny!

Stop him!

Just a second.

I hardly touched him.

I guess I don't know my own strength.

- Take him away, fellows.

- Come on, boys.

All right, play ball! Batter up!

Get in there and send Goldberg around.

Just watch me.

- Slappy, is he still out?

- Yeah.

I don't think he's seriously hurt,

Miss Higgins. He's merely stunned.

Darling!

Darling, please, look at me!

Eddie, can you talk? How do you feel?

I feel fine.

I feel wonderful.

Then you just lie right here

and don't you move.

Who's moving?

Darling, I was so worried when

Dennis hit you on the head with the ball.

Where is he?

I'll murder him! I'll kill him!

Let me go!

He did it on purpose!

No, Eddie, he didn't!

Wait a minute! Hold it!

Let me at him!

Let me at him!

Get a hit. You can catch him.

Yeah! Give me a bat.

I can explain the whole thing.

Come on, Eddie!

Eddie, stop!

Eddie, stop!

Wait!

"Keep your seats, hold your hats

"It's not the finish of the show

"The love scene must be played out

"Before the final fade out.

"Sinatra gets Garrett

"Kelly gets Williams

"For that's the plot the author wrote

"So turn this duet into a quartet

"And end it on a happy note

"Like a Philadelphia scrapple

"Like a Washington expos

"Like the St. Louis Blues

or the Dallas News

"It's strictly USA

"Like a Saturday night on Main Street

"Like a Ford or a Chevrolet

"Like potato chips or comic strips

"It's strictly USA

"Take Judy Garland

"Take Kathryn Grayson

"Take Mr. Crosby

"Or Fred Astaire

"Don't let the movies thin 'em up

"'Cause they look so pretty

when we pin 'em up

"Like the annual Elks convention

"Like a Rotary Club soiree

"Like Masonic halls or firemen's balls

"Like honeymooning at Niagara Falls

"They're really here to stay

"Cause it's strictly USA"
