Famous hitter Boss Swaggert was booed out of the major leagues and was so angry, he set out to make baseball illegal. He worked hard and became a very rich, powerful and greedy man, and built factories on the sites of every ballpark.

Years later, young Georgie was born and couldn't help but yell out baseball sayings, such as "no hitter" and "going, going, gone." He had quite a throwing arm too. Eventually, he was arrested because of his baseball outbursts and to be set free, his lawyer arranged one single baseball game. If Georgie could strike out Swaggert, he could go free, and baseball could once again be the nation's favorite past time. I won't spoil the ending for everyone, but given the target audience, I'm sure you can guess what happens.
