In this musical, friends Jerry Burke (Gus Van) and Jack Glennon (Joseph T. Schenck) are both baseball players who perform a vaudeville act on the side. Jack attracts the attention of money-hungry Daisy (Mary Doran), who splits up his engagement with sweet Mary (Bessie Love) and his friendship with Jerry. Eventually, Jerry's income is insufficient for Daisy, and she leaves him. Jack, whose team is playing in the World Series, starts dating Mary, but still tries to help his old friend in need.

Michael E. Grost Classic Film and Television Creaky musical with singing baseball players, vivid 1930 vaudeville and music, dated ethnic humor and an announcer called Graham McCracker. Dec 30, 2014 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Rather maudlin precursor to Take Me Out to the Ball Game; vaudevillians Van & Schenck make a favorable impression, and Nina Mae McKinney pops up in a production number called "Harlem Madness." Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
