00:01:52 This is just like Game Seven
00:01:57 Yeah, yeah.
00:02:00 Now look, you've got no strike zone,
00:02:04 - UMPIRE: Batter up!
00:02:05 - He's gonna whiff. Bring it in.
00:02:08 - Let him walk you.
00:02:11 Yeah, don't swing!
00:02:12 If I don't swing,
00:02:16 (LAUGHING)
00:02:18 BOY: Don't swing, Irving!

00:02:58 (THUDDING)
00:02:59 Ah!
00:03:01 Nice job, whiff.
00:03:03 That's it.
00:03:05 BOY: Give it up.
00:03:07 BOY 3: Yeah, don't come back.
00:03:09 BOY: Loser.
00:03:12 WOMAN: Honey! Dinnertime!
00:03:25 (GRUNTS)
00:03:27 (GLASS SHATTERING)
00:03:38 Huh?
00:03:50 Hmm.
00:03:51 (HEAVING)
00:03:56 Hmm.
00:04:00 Guess nobody wants you
00:04:02 (BICYCLE BELL RINGING)
00:04:04 Hey, Irving, you stink!
00:04:09 (BELL RINGING)
00:04:10 (LAUGHING)
00:04:19 ANNOUNCER: The Movietone News.
00:04:21 Bringing you the news
00:04:25 In sporting news, the Yankees continue
00:04:30 It's Game Three of the World Series.
00:04:32 Bottom of the ninth,
00:04:35 bases loaded,
00:04:39 Will the Sultan of Swat save the day?
00:04:43 You betcha!
00:04:44 (CHEERING)
00:04:45 So what's Napoleon Cross,
00:04:48 going to do now?
00:04:50 With his best bat, Darlin', in his hands,
00:04:53 Babe Ruth is unstoppable.
00:04:55 CROSS: Babe Ruth. Babe Ruth.
00:04:58 Babe Ruth and his best bat, Darlin'.
00:05:01 He's everywhere!
00:05:02 Every newsreel, every newspaper
00:05:06 Look at all this stuff! Babe Ruth sippy cup,
00:05:10 Babe Ruth underpants,
00:05:15 What's he got that I haven't got?
00:05:18 He's got a World Series trophy!
00:05:23 - Is that too much to ask?
00:05:27 Why don't you put me back in, Mr. Cross?
00:05:30 I'm working on a new pitch. I call it...
00:05:33 (CHUCKLING) Are you ready?
00:05:34 The booger ball.
00:05:35 (SNORTING)
00:05:37 No, Lefty,
00:05:39 you're no match for Babe Ruth.
00:05:41 Cheating? Me? Babe Ruth's the cheater.
00:05:44 I bet he's got some lucky
00:05:46 That's cheating.
00:05:48 (COUGHING)
00:05:49 You're right, Lefty.
00:05:52 What is it, what is it, what is it?
00:05:56 So what do we do?
00:05:58 We take away his bat. Let's do the math.
00:06:01 - Going into the light.
00:06:05 Without that bat, he's just big and fat!
00:06:07 (LAUGHING)
00:06:09 (COUGHING)
00:06:10 Put that on a T-shirt.
00:06:12 (LAUGHING)
00:06:15 Yeah, I like it.
00:06:18 Only one problem.
00:06:21 - Not "we," you.
00:06:25 Get me that bat. And I think
00:06:30 Otherwise, you're out!
00:06:43 - MOM: Hi, honey, how was your day?
00:06:46 - Is Dad home yet?
00:06:48 - He's working late.
00:06:50 - Dinner will be ready soon.
00:06:58 (SNIFFLING)
00:07:01 BOY: Why do I always get stuck
00:07:03 BOY 2: Yankee Irving again!
00:07:05 (LAUGHING)
00:07:08 MOM: He's working late.
00:07:10 BOY: That's it.
00:07:13 BOY: You're not Babe Ruth, okay?
00:07:16 BOY: Why do we always get stuck
00:07:18 (GASPING)
00:07:19 (GRUNTS)
00:07:29 (KNOCKING)
00:07:46 You think you could take your thumb
00:07:49 Whoa!
00:07:51 (SCREAMING)
00:08:04 (GASPING)
00:08:06 Huh?
00:08:08 What?
00:08:10 - Are you talking?
00:08:12 One smart fella, he felt smart.
00:08:15 Three smart fellas, they all felt smart.
00:08:18 Wait a second. Where are you going?
00:08:20 Back to the sandlot,
00:08:23 (HEAVING)
00:08:24 Hey, watch it there, grabby hands!
00:08:26 Don't make me go all
00:08:30 (HEAVING)
00:08:31 (GASPING)
00:08:33 (HEAVING)
00:08:34 Whoa!
00:08:36 Where did you go?
00:08:46 Hey, Fuzzy, how do I get out of here?
00:08:48 - This kid is nuts.
00:08:51 And I just wanna leave.
00:08:52 (GRUNTING)
00:08:53 Hey, genius, it just so happens
00:08:58 Sayonara.
00:09:00 Your living room is a little cramped.
00:09:04 (EXCLAIMS)
00:09:08 Huh?
00:09:09 (WHOOPING)
00:09:10 I'm rollin' in style!
00:09:13 Whoa!
00:09:14 Nobody gets their mitts on Screwie.
00:09:19 Ouch!
00:09:21 Why can't I break a window?
00:09:25 Gotcha.
00:09:26 - What's going on in here?
00:09:31 He never gets tired of that one.
00:09:33 Oh, my gosh, a talking baseball.
00:09:38 - It's saying, "Yankee, time for dinner."
00:09:42 Food can't talk. Except for beans.
00:09:46 - Go get cleaned up.
00:09:49 I don't know. Let's see. Help!
00:09:56 Yup, you're right. She can't hear.
00:09:58 (SQUEAKING)
00:10:00 Please don't skimp on the soap.
00:10:04 Oh!
00:10:05 (SPLASHING)
00:10:06 (GURGLING)
00:10:09 Kid, quit it.
00:10:12 (BUBBLING)
00:10:19 I wish Dad was here.
00:10:21 Oh, sweetheart, you know
00:10:24 I know, but I really need to see him.
00:10:28 Tell you what,
00:10:30 - Really?
00:10:33 You know you're not supposed
00:10:36 Thanks, Mom.
00:10:38 Great. So just drop me in the sandlot
00:10:42 Hey, hey, what are you doing?
00:10:43 YANKEE: Making sure
00:10:45 - Not the underpants drawer!
00:10:49 (BALL BOUNCING)
00:10:51 SCREWIE: Not anymore.
00:11:04 (SQUEAKING)
00:11:20 YANKEE: Wow!
00:11:26 (EXCLAIMS)
00:11:47 Now batting for the New York Yankees,
00:11:52 Hey, Dad.
00:11:57 What are you doing here?
00:11:58 I wanted to see you. I brought you dinner.
00:12:01 Great. What are we having?
00:12:02 Mom's mystery meatloaf.
00:12:06 Hmm.
00:12:07 Meatloaf. Let's start with dessert.
00:12:11 So, what's new?
00:12:13 Dad, you're not gonna believe this.
00:12:15 Oh, no? Try me.
00:12:17 I found a talking baseball.
00:12:21 Oh, really? Does he have a name?
00:12:22 (CHUCKLING)
00:12:24 I call him Screwie.
00:12:25 Oh, yeah? Where'd you find it?
00:12:27 At the sandlot.
00:12:30 Did you play ball today?
00:12:32 Yeah, but I don't think
00:12:36 Hey, I thought you loved baseball.
00:12:38 Well, I think I'm in a slump.
00:12:41 Hmm.
00:12:43 You know, I was watching the team
00:12:47 here are guys who make a living
00:12:49 They play every day, and even on the day
00:12:54 they're still standing at the plate
00:12:57 And you know
00:13:02 They just keep swinging?
00:13:03 (CHUCKLING)
00:13:04 Come on, I got something to show you.
00:13:18 (CLICKING)
00:13:49 Babe Ruth!
00:14:17 YANKEE: Is that Darlin'?
00:14:18 DAD: (CHUCKLING) Yup. Sure is.
00:14:21 Babe had that bat custom made
00:14:25 That was the first year
00:14:29 That's right. People say she was made
00:14:32 growing on the side of Mount Olympus.
00:14:36 I'm pretty sure it was made in Kentucky.
00:14:38 Hey, come on, pal, we should head home.
00:14:41 Oh, come on, Dad,
00:14:47 I tell you what, you can stay here
00:14:49 while I put my things away.
00:14:51 - Meet you at the back gate. Deal?
00:14:55 Yankee, don't touch anything
00:14:56 and make sure you close the door
00:14:58 I promise.
00:15:04 (DOOR CLOSING)
00:15:19 - You! What are you doing?
00:15:23 - I was just helping my dad mop up.
00:15:29 (PANTING)
00:15:32 What are you looking at?
00:15:52 Here you go!
00:15:58 (SNORING)
00:16:11 Kid! Kid! Hey, kid! Wake up!
00:16:17 You're turning me into a spitball.
00:16:19 (EXCLAIMING)
00:16:20 (YAWNING)
00:16:26 (BREAKING WIND)
00:16:28 How long you been taking
00:16:32 (STRETCHING)
00:16:33 Good morning.
00:16:35 (YAWNING)
00:16:38 I thought you were giving that up.
00:16:40 My dad says you should never
00:16:43 - Has he ever seen you bat?
00:16:48 So, you know a lot about baseball, right?
00:16:52 I mean, since you are one.
00:16:54 I know one thing about baseball, it stinks.
00:16:57 And you saw me play baseball, right?
00:17:00 Make that two things.
00:17:03 Well, then maybe
00:17:05 I could point you to another hobby.
00:17:11 You can watch people fly kites.
00:17:13 How can you hate baseball?
00:17:16 Kid, look,
00:17:20 Did you know I made it to the majors?
00:17:22 - You were in the majors?
00:17:26 I remember it like it was yesterday.
00:17:29 forty thousand fans screaming
00:17:33 It was like a dream come true.
00:17:35 All I ever wanted was to be home run ball.
00:17:38 And on the very first pitch, crack,
00:17:44 foul.
00:17:45 That's right, kid, foul ball.
00:17:49 Right out of the park.
00:17:50 Dreams and everything vanished.
00:17:57 No. They left me out there to rot.
00:18:00 So believe me when I tell you,
00:18:05 Trust me, I know.
00:18:07 (KNOCKING)
00:18:08 (DOOR OPENING)
00:18:10 - DAD: Mr. Robinson.
00:18:13 ROBINSON: I'm sorry to bother you
00:18:15 but we have a real problem here.
00:18:17 DAD: What sort of a problem, sir?
00:18:19 - ROBINSON: This is Officer Bryant.
00:18:21 ROBINSON: Someone broke into
00:18:23 - MOM: Oh, no.
00:18:26 BRYANT: You were the only one there
00:18:29 MOM: What are you implying?
00:18:30 BRYANT: Did you see anyone else
00:18:33 - Wait. There was a security guard.
00:18:36 Dad, after you left the locker room
00:18:39 and told me to get out.
00:18:41 - You took your son into the locker room?
00:18:45 Do you mind if I look in his room?
00:18:46 - Excuse me, my son is not a thief.
00:18:49 Thank God you're here. This kid is crazy.
00:18:52 First he put me in the underpants drawer,
00:18:55 then he forced me to eat meatloaf.
00:18:57 - ROBINSON: This is a disaster.
00:18:59 - ROBINSON: The Series is only half over.
00:19:00 What am I gonna tell the Babe? We need
00:19:05 The bat's not here.
00:19:08 Son, if you know what happened
00:19:12 - But that's what I'm trying to tell you.
00:19:16 I... I know, Mr. Robinson.
00:19:19 As the General Manager
00:19:21 I have no other choice. You're fired.
00:19:24 - Fired?
00:19:28 Stanley, someone has to be held
00:19:32 If Babe's bat is found, then I'll reconsider,
00:19:39 Stanley, what are we gonna do?
00:19:42 - I'll get another job. I'll get two jobs.
00:19:46 Yankee, you were alone in that
00:19:50 - Stanley...
00:19:51 there was no security guard on duty.
00:19:54 Yes, there was. Maybe he took the bat.
00:19:57 That's enough.
00:20:01 I don't know.
00:20:03 - Go to your room.
00:20:05 Go to your room.
00:20:15 SCREWIE: What was all that?
00:20:18 - Someone stole Babe Ruth's bat.
00:20:22 - Screwie, my dad got fired.
00:20:27 Why would someone steal
00:20:30 The Yankees are gonna lose
00:20:32 Whoa, kid, you're watching
00:20:36 That lucky bat stuff
00:20:38 How do you know?
00:20:41 Ooh, that hurt.
00:20:42 That guard had to take the bat.
00:20:44 Why would a Yankees security guard
00:20:47 Now, if it were a Chicago Cubs
00:20:51 Wait a minute.
00:20:53 (EXCLAIMING)
00:20:58 SCREWIE: Hey, hey, hey, I can't breathe.
00:21:02 I still can't breathe.
00:21:05 Hey, I knew I'd seen that face before.
00:21:08 (SIGHS)
00:21:09 What are you babbling about?
00:21:11 The security guard was Lefty Maginnis,
00:21:14 pitcher for the Chicago Cubs.
00:21:15 Lefty's the biggest cheater
00:21:18 Lefty stole the bat so Babe can't hit.
00:21:21 The Yankees will lose the Series.
00:21:25 Yeah, and don't forget to mention
00:21:27 from your friendly neighborhood
00:21:30 Kid, this is just a crazy theory
00:21:32 and even if it were true,
00:21:35 You don't have any proof.
00:21:37 - Then I'll get some proof.
00:21:39 Most of the Cubs are heading for Chicago.
00:21:42 Sneak out of the house,
00:21:45 and search every single passenger?
00:21:47 - Right.
00:21:50 If we go to Penn Station,
00:21:52 I got to learn to keep my mouth shut.
00:21:55 Whoa! Oh!
00:21:56 This can't work. You're just a kid
00:21:58 and this is the real world,
00:22:01 - filled with gumdrop fairies and...
00:22:04 Yeah, I think maybe not,
00:22:12 Screwie, I have to do this for my dad.
00:22:16 All right, don't look at me...
00:22:19 Stop it, stop...
00:22:23 I'll help you to find the bat
00:22:26 - and leave me to rot in peace. Deal?
00:22:31 Hmm.
00:22:33 (HEAVING)
00:22:39 Oh, whoa!
00:22:41 SCREWIE: What are we doing?
00:22:43 YANKEE: Uh-oh.
00:22:46 (YELLS)
00:22:48 SCREWIE: Uh-oh! Uh-oh!
00:22:50 (GASPING)
00:22:52 - Okay, we're fine.
00:22:55 SCREWIE: Not fine!
00:22:57 (YELLS)
00:22:58 My head! My butt! My head! My butt!
00:23:01 (YANKEE YELLS)
00:23:03 (YELLING)
00:23:06 (YELLING)
00:23:08 Oh!
00:23:10 - So far, so good.
00:23:13 - You were screaming pretty loud.
00:23:16 I was laughing.
00:23:18 Ha! See? Ha, ha, ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Laughing.
00:23:27 SCREWIE: There's a million people here.
00:23:30 Just keep looking, all right?
00:23:36 CONDUCTOR: Flyer service to Niagara.
00:23:40 (CHATTERING)
00:23:45 YANKEE: We gotta hurry.
00:23:46 Why don't we come back in 10 years?
00:23:49 Make way, there, folks.
00:23:54 (HEAVING)
00:23:57 See anything yet?
00:23:58 SCREWIE: I see a sock, a candy wrapper,
00:24:03 - Hmm. Pineapple.
00:24:08 Now do you see anything?
00:24:09 I see thousands of people
00:24:12 none of which is ours.
00:24:14 There's only one train to Chicago,
00:24:18 - We're gonna stake it out.
00:24:20 What, what, what,
00:24:22 WOMAN ON PA: All aboard
00:24:25 SCREWIE: Better off rotting up
00:24:28 I got to get stuck
00:24:32 How are we gonna cover the whole train?
00:24:35 and... Holy Mackerel!
00:24:40 Bingo. That's got to be Babe's bat.
00:24:44 (EXCLAIMING)
00:24:48 (SPITTING)
00:24:50 (LAUGHING)
00:24:54 Okay, we found him. I'll give you that.
00:24:58 A trombone, a wooden leg, a pogo stick.
00:25:01 Well, there he goes,
00:25:08 - Come on, boys.
00:25:11 SCREWIE: Hey, wait, wait.
00:25:16 MAN: Take a head count
00:25:28 (GASPING)
00:25:33 - I think that's him.
00:25:35 I'm not sure. Take a closer look.
00:25:39 - Wow!
00:25:41 There's a horse jumping off a diving board.
00:25:44 Wait, I think that's Eleanor Roosevelt.
00:25:46 Screwie, is it Lefty or not?
00:25:54 Take a quick look as you roll yourself back.
00:25:56 Roll myself back from...
00:26:00 Ow, what a headache! Nope. No.
00:26:07 Hello.
00:26:10 No.
00:26:12 (SCREECHING TO A HALT)
00:26:17 (INHALING)
00:26:20 Did you see him?
00:26:22 (EXHALING)
00:26:23 Third row, aisle seat.
00:26:27 (SHUSHING)
00:26:29 (GASPING)
00:26:34 (HEAVING)
00:26:38 (GROANING)
00:26:43 Good. You got it,
00:26:47 Oh, no!
00:26:49 (GASPS)
00:26:51 Huh?
00:26:53 (DOOR OPENING)
00:26:54 (DOOR CLOSING)
00:26:56 Uh-oh.
00:26:58 (TRAIN WHISTLE BLOWING)

00:27:33 SCREWIE: I'm a ball.
00:27:34 I'm probably gonna survive this,
00:27:38 Whoa.
00:27:39 Screwie.

00:27:44 Yankee, help me!

00:29:36 (HEAVING)
00:29:38 Gotcha!
00:29:39 Hey, you...
00:29:40 Hit him! Use your elbow.
00:29:41 (EXCLAIMS)
00:29:43 Kicking is good.
00:29:49 (CLANGING)
00:29:50 Oh, that can't feel good.
00:29:53 Doesn't really hurt so bad.
00:29:55 Wait. Yes, it does hurt.
00:29:57 Here it comes. Oh, yeah.
00:29:58 (YELLING)
00:30:01 Oh!
00:30:05 (BELL RINGING)
00:30:12 (GRINDING TO A HALT)
00:30:17 But I need to get to New York.
00:30:18 New York? That way.
00:30:23 (WHISTLE BLOWING)
00:30:30 (DOOR CLOSING)
00:30:32 SCREWIE: Oh, great.
00:30:33 No tickets, no train, no sandlot.
00:30:38 What could be worse?
00:30:40 Well, at least I got the bat.
00:30:44 (SCREAMING)
00:30:51 (PANTING)
00:30:56 (SCREAMING)
00:30:57 - Oh, here she goes again.
00:31:00 (SOBBING) I'm not supposed to be here.
00:31:03 SCREWIE: Whoa, sister, relax.
00:31:05 You're a hunk of wood,
00:31:08 Do you know who I am?
00:31:09 I am Darlin', honey. I'm the Babe's bat.
00:31:13 Born of a 1000-year-old tree
00:31:17 Struck by lightning,
00:31:18 and carved by monks using
00:31:22 Since when do monks make baseball bats?
00:31:24 - Are you calling me a liar?
00:31:28 In fact, I was made
00:31:30 and stitched together by Betsy Ross!
00:31:33 Screwie was in the Major Leagues, too.
00:31:35 He'd have been a home run ball,
00:31:38 - Oh.
00:31:39 A foul ball? Really?
00:31:43 I've hit thousands of guys
00:31:46 You know, you bats are all prima donnas.
00:31:48 You only come out
00:31:51 carried to the plate and back.
00:31:52 "Oh, don't let me lay in this dirt.
00:31:56 Well, here's what you know.
00:31:58 I don't need anybody to carry me around.
00:32:04 - Put me down!
00:32:06 YANKEE: Okay.
00:32:09 So long, farm team.
00:32:18 Excuse me.
00:32:23 Two.
00:32:29 You know something?
00:32:30 If you think
00:32:33 you've got another thing coming.
00:32:38 If, in fact, you're rescuing me,
00:32:39 then I assume that you are returning me
00:32:44 who, as I'm sure you're aware,
00:32:48 playing in the World Series.
00:32:50 You have heard of the World Series,
00:32:54 (IN A HIGH-PITCHED VOICE) Oh, yeah,
00:32:57 But we ain't going to Chicago,
00:32:59 New York? Why?
00:33:02 I just told you Babe is in Chicago.
00:33:04 When Lefty stole you, my dad got fired.
00:33:07 If I take you to New York,
00:33:10 Oh, no, no, no.
00:33:12 Hey, table leg,
00:33:16 We are not going to Chicago.
00:33:19 That's it. The baseball has spoken.
00:33:21 - But...
00:33:25 Fine, that's all right with me.
00:33:27 I just happen to know that
00:33:31 and I'm sure he could get
00:33:33 Maybe even with a big raise.
00:33:35 But y'all want to go to New York,
00:33:39 Only you can make that decision.
00:33:43 (SIGHING)
00:33:46 Oh, Stanley, where could he be?
00:33:51 DAD: This is all my fault.
00:33:53 I was too hard on him.
00:33:55 How will we ever find him?
00:33:58 I think it's time to call the police.
00:34:02 (SINGING)
00:34:06 Ouch! Ouch!
00:34:13 (SNORING)
00:34:20 (MEOWING)
00:34:22 (CRASHING)
00:34:24 Is that our train?
00:34:25 (YAWNING)
00:34:27 I don't think so.
00:34:29 Oh.
00:34:31 (SNIFFING)
00:34:32 I know that smell.
00:34:37 Kid, kid, wake up.
00:34:39 Wake up.
00:34:40 - Hey, what do you...
00:34:42 Lefty's here.
00:34:45 Oh, no.
00:34:46 (SINGING)
00:34:50 Get it back some...
00:34:54 Oh, he's gonna be sorry.
00:34:58 I'll have a non-fat mochaccino, please.
00:34:59 (SHUSHING)
00:35:00 Quiet, tentpole. It's the bad guy.
00:35:03 ...use his head for batting practice.
00:35:06 Whack, whack, whack, whack, whack.
00:35:09 Babe Ruth, stop hitting yourself.
00:35:10 (PHONE RINGING)
00:35:12 Seriously, why are you
00:35:14 - What?
00:35:17 Ah! Lefty.
00:35:19 I've been expecting your call
00:35:21 - From now on, we have to talk in code.
00:35:24 Are you on the way to Cairo?
00:35:27 - I thought you wanted me in Chicago.
00:35:31 Do you have
00:35:33 Yeah, yeah, I've got the bat right here.
00:35:37 Listen.
00:35:39 - And no one even suspects us.
00:35:43 Raoul, there is no "us."
00:35:45 If you get caught,
00:35:48 - Absolutamente not.
00:35:51 they blamed it on some janitor and his kid.
00:35:54 Get this. They fired the guy.
00:35:56 (LAUGHING)
00:35:58 We're... I mean, I'm in the clear.
00:36:01 So, now that I have the bat
00:36:04 Not so fast, Raoul.
00:36:05 When you make the delivery,
00:36:08 - Oh, but Mr. Cross.
00:36:15 Oh, what's wrong, little Babe Ruth
00:36:18 You look a little groggy. Are you?
00:36:19 Well, perhaps you can use
00:36:23 (LAUGHING)
00:36:25 (COUGHING)

00:37:26 SCREWIE: Now, what?
00:37:29 SCREWIE: We head for New York,
00:37:30 I don't know. Just let me think.
00:37:32 SCREWIE: Why don't we flip a coin?
00:37:34 Heads, we go to New York.
00:37:37 Now, that was rude and uncalled for.
00:37:39 (HOWLING)
00:37:40 (GROWLING)
00:37:42 YANKEE: What's that?
00:37:43 - Wolves?
00:37:45 We're in Pittsburgh.
00:37:46 Wolves are too scared
00:37:49 - SCREWIE: Oh, kid.
00:37:51 SCREWIE: Help! Help!
00:37:53 Forget him. Run. Save me.
00:37:55 SCREWIE: Don't eat me.
00:37:58 The stench!

00:38:23 All right, all right.
00:38:25 I'm doing the best I can with what I got.

00:40:47 And the Babe,
00:40:50 Oh, come on, son.
00:40:52 Babe's got a big old heart.
00:40:55 Look, when Babe was a kid,
00:40:57 Then he picks up a bat, he starts swinging,
00:40:59 look where it got him.
00:41:01 If Babe can do it, so can we.

00:41:49 Sorry, guys, I can't go.
00:41:54 - What did he say?
00:41:58 - Bye.
00:42:01 You heard those guys. Babe's their hero.
00:42:04 Babe's everyone's hero,
00:42:06 and I can't let them down,
00:42:09 - We're going to Chicago.
00:42:12 Thank you.
00:42:16 This is great. We had a deal, Yankee.
00:42:18 And you, you rotten two-by-four,
00:42:22 You tricked him.
00:42:24 Face it, leather face, you're beat.
00:42:26 Fine, I can't trust you.
00:42:33 (HOWLING)
00:42:34 Whoa!
00:42:35 Yankee!
00:42:39 I guess a couple of days in Chicago
00:42:41 I've been curious
00:42:44 but after that I'm heading back
00:42:49 DARLIN': You know, I was just a splinter
00:42:51 So after Babe and I
00:42:54 the Queen invited us to try our hand
00:42:57 And there was this cheeky cricket bat
00:43:01 and I... Why are we stopping?
00:43:05 'Cause I'm tired and hungry.
00:43:08 - You guys ever eat?
00:43:10 I've got to maintain this very trim figure.
00:43:12 Trim? Ha!
00:43:14 From where I'm sitting, I see lots of grain.
00:43:16 - Are you saying I'm plump?
00:43:18 Excuse me, I have been examined
00:43:22 who can't figure out
00:43:25 - and swing so well.
00:43:28 Have these scientists done research
00:43:30 - Can you say the same, Scarface?
00:43:33 - and listen to this.
00:43:35 - (CHUCKLING) Hey, look, a baseball.
00:43:38 (CHUCKLING)
00:43:39 Put me down.
00:43:40 Hey...
00:43:42 (EXCLAIMS)
00:43:44 - Give him back.
00:43:46 (SNORTING)
00:43:47 What did you do? Name it?
00:43:49 (CHUCKLING) What's he got?
00:43:51 - Do you dress him up?
00:43:54 - Give him back.
00:43:56 - Help!
00:43:58 All he does is complain anyway.
00:44:00 We can find a ball with a better attitude.
00:44:04 They're all warm and fuzzy.
00:44:06 (LAUGHING)
00:44:08 (EXCLAIMS)
00:44:09 - You, give him back that ball!
00:44:12 - Take that!
00:44:16 (GRUNTS)
00:44:20 (CHUCKLING) Hey, kid,
00:44:25 No.
00:44:27 But I'll let her help.

00:44:30 - Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:44:33 (GROANS)
00:44:37 Looks like we're fighting two girls.
00:44:49 Ow.
00:44:50 (CHUCKLING) You got him
00:44:52 The kid's not even ducking.
00:44:54 DARLIN': Watch out.
00:44:55 - You gotta start dodging these apples.
00:44:58 No, you're not.
00:45:00 You gotta watch
00:45:14 - Yeah, that's it.
00:45:17 What're you looking at me for?
00:45:21 Don't you make me break out
00:45:25 SCREWIE: Incoming!
00:45:27 (YELLS)
00:45:28 I've been hit. I feel like a Danish.
00:45:31 Come on.
00:45:33 Ow!

00:45:37 All right, just take your stupid ball.

00:45:42 Yeah!
00:45:48 Oh!

00:46:31 My daddy taught me to pitch
00:46:34 - Really?
00:46:37 - Hey, Mom, this is Yankee.

00:46:47 My heavens!
00:46:49 This is my dad right here.
00:46:51 He's a pitcher for the Cincinnati Tigers.
00:46:54 Your dad is Lonnie Brewster?
00:46:56 Lonnie "The Rooster" Brewster?
00:46:59 - The king of the curve ball?
00:47:02 (EXCLAIMS)
00:47:03 He can pitch to me anytime.
00:47:04 - I think I'm gonna pitch my lunch.
00:47:08 No-hitter in Cleveland.
00:47:10 That was the ten-inning game
00:47:13 - Grand slam in Milwaukee.
00:47:16 That was the game were my dad made
00:47:17 - two triple plays.
00:47:21 - Your dad's incredible.
00:47:24 - He's my hero.
00:47:28 Really?
00:47:30 Do you ever dream of playing
00:47:33 Oh, yeah, all the time.
00:47:36 But I'm kind of in a slump right now.
00:47:42 Yankee, did you run away from home?
00:47:44 I'm not running away. I'm on a mission.
00:47:48 This is Babe Ruth's bat.
00:47:51 That's not Darlin', is it?
00:47:53 Yeah. I have to get her to Babe,
00:47:57 Hey, maybe my dad can help.
00:48:02 (KNOCKING)
00:48:06 - Hello. May I help you?
00:48:10 I've been worried sick about my son.
00:48:13 You know,
00:48:18 Just give this to my dad.
00:48:21 - Thanks.
00:48:24 Dad?
00:48:26 (GASPING)
00:48:27 Come on, son. Time to go.

00:49:41 My dad's gonna get his job back.
00:49:43 Yeah, well, I want my job back.
00:49:46 I'm a pitcher. I pitch.
00:49:50 (EXCLAIMS)
00:49:51 Oh, oh, my nose...
00:49:53 (HEAVING)
00:49:56 Oh!
00:49:57 Take that, you bum.
00:49:59 (CHUCKLING)
00:50:01 - You okay?
00:50:05 Marti, I just want to say...
00:50:09 Mmm-hmm?
00:50:10 - I want the bat.
00:50:12 - let's get out of here.
00:50:14 - Go find my dad.
00:50:17 - See you later, Yankee.
00:50:20 Thanks, Marti!
00:50:21 Gimme the bat.
00:50:22 (GROANING)
00:51:52 (THUNDER RUMBLING)
00:52:03 Why can't you stay
00:52:05 Because if I stay on that side,
00:52:08 - and I don't wanna get all swollen.
00:52:10 - You are getting swollen.
00:52:13 In your big fat bat head.
00:52:16 Oh, you are gonna get it.
00:52:19 SCREWIE: Oh, is that a threat?
00:52:22 DARLIN': My best swing,
00:52:25 Will you two just knock it off!
00:52:29 (SNIFFLING)
00:52:30 - Well, what's wrong with him?
00:52:33 He's a ten-year-old kid,
00:52:36 with a selfish bat
00:52:38 - I do not treat him like a pack mule.
00:52:41 Ever thank him for saving you from Lefty,
00:52:43 or carting you all the way back
00:52:46 I...
00:52:47 (SOBBING)
00:52:55 Yankee, it occurs to me
00:52:58 from saving me from that ruffian,
00:53:01 and carrying me all this way.
00:53:04 - That's okay.
00:53:07 My mama would just be mortified
00:53:11 and I just want to tell you how much
00:53:15 (SNIFFING)
00:53:16 Yankee, is there something else
00:53:21 - I miss my mom and dad.
00:53:24 Sometimes, Babe misses his family
00:53:28 Why?
00:53:29 He's surrounded by reporters
00:53:33 That's true, but they're not there
00:53:36 They just hang around 'cause he's famous.
00:53:40 You know something?
00:53:43 - Oh, please.
00:53:46 Oh, yes. You know, I believe
00:53:50 Thanks, Darlin'.
00:53:51 No, no. Thank you, Yankee.
00:53:55 Oh, brother.
00:54:01 CROSS: Here's the windup, and the pitch.
00:54:04 (GLASS SHATTERING)
00:54:05 It's a home run! The crowd goes wild!
00:54:10 They're going nuts in Chicago!
00:54:12 (IMITATING ECHO) I'd like to thank
00:54:16 But especially myself!
00:54:18 (PHONE RINGING)
00:54:20 - What?
00:54:24 - It's Lefty.
00:54:27 The Series is virtually in the bag.
00:54:30 - Where are you?
00:54:32 I'm on the phone in Toledo, Ohio.
00:54:36 I... I just needed to change trains.
00:54:40 Do you have the at-bay with you?
00:54:42 The bat is...
00:54:46 If the bat's on its way,
00:54:48 I'm feeling like you're not being
00:54:52 You don't have the bat, do you?
00:54:53 - I'm... I...
00:54:55 There's one game left in this Series.
00:54:57 If I don't have that bat in my paws
00:55:02 you don't have a job, Lefty. All right?
00:55:05 You know what I think?
00:55:06 - I think there's trouble with this line, boss.
00:55:09 - I think the phone isn't working!
00:55:11 - Can you hear me, boss?
00:55:12 - Hello! Hello!
00:55:14 (CLANGING)
00:55:16 - What a jerk!
00:55:18 - I said the phone doesn't work.
00:55:21 - Work!
00:55:22 - Doesn't work!
00:55:24 - Work! Work! Work!
00:55:27 (SCREAMING)
00:55:28 CROSS: Fine.
00:55:58 Would you autograph
00:56:00 Sure thing, miss.
00:56:02 Hey!
00:56:03 (CHEERING)
00:56:04 Hey, now. Hey. Hello. Oh, hi!
00:56:09 - Hello, thank you so much.
00:56:14 Oh, but they should be.
00:56:16 Gee, Mr. Brewster,
00:56:19 - Sure. Sure, kids.
00:56:20 - Yes!
00:56:22 You keep on rooting for us, all right?
00:56:23 - Thank you, Mr. Brewster.
00:56:24 - See you soon...
00:56:31 Cap, let's go.
00:56:32 (CHUCKLING)
00:56:34 All right, Hank. All right.
00:56:36 Yankee fan, huh?
00:56:39 Your boys gonna be able
00:56:42 - What do you mean?
00:56:45 - Got beat bad.
00:56:47 - Lost again?
00:56:50 Only one game left.
00:56:53 (ENGINE STARTING)
00:56:54 (CHEERING)
00:56:58 All right, Willie.
00:57:00 - Watch your head, son.
00:57:02 I could have caught that
00:57:05 (LAUGHING)
00:57:12 What are they doing?
00:57:14 Oh, my gosh! They're mimes.
00:57:18 Never seen anyone
00:57:20 Keeps us on top of our game.
00:57:23 Hey, everybody. This is Yankee Irving
00:57:28 How're you doing, Yankee?
00:57:30 - Hey, Willie, are we still playing?
00:57:33 - You think you can handle it?
00:57:37 MAN: Get on up there, hip-pockets.
00:57:40 - Batter up.
00:57:42 (LAUGHING)
00:57:44 Hey, just a minute, y'all.
00:57:46 Look here, son,
00:57:50 Yeah, you look good.
00:57:53 Half of hittin' is balance.
00:57:55 You get your feet set right and
00:57:58 (RAP MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO)
00:58:03 Keep your knees bent
00:58:06 and your head down.
00:58:09 (EXCLAIMING)
00:58:13 I'm not sure I can take much more of this.
00:58:15 - Hey, hey.
00:58:18 What happened to the invisible ball?
00:58:21 (EXCLAIMING)
00:58:23 Oh, relax, you knuckle ball.
00:58:25 How can something so round
00:58:30 - Whoa!
00:58:35 (CHUCKLING)
00:58:36 Now you're getting it.
00:58:43 Whoa!
00:58:44 I'm afraid of heights!
00:58:46 I got it, I got it, I got it.
00:58:50 That was kind of fun,
00:58:54 What am I saying? That was fun.
00:58:58 Whoa! Come on.
00:58:59 (WHOOPING)
00:59:06 Come on, put some pepper on me.
00:59:08 (EXCLAIMING)
00:59:09 I want more. Give me more!
00:59:13 (CHUCKLING)
00:59:14 He looks like a pro.
00:59:17 - Look at you. You've got great form.
00:59:20 Look at me, Yank.
00:59:22 (WHOOPING)
00:59:23 Coming through. Look at this.
00:59:25 Yippety-do! Come on, come on, come on.
00:59:27 Okay, now you go ahead,
00:59:30 Here comes the gas.
00:59:31 This is easy. I can do this.
00:59:34 - That's the way you swing it!
00:59:38 - Did you see me? I did it!
00:59:42 MAN: Oh, this boy means business.
00:59:43 DARLIN': This is a little tiny Babe
00:59:53 (SNORING)
01:00:24 Wow.
01:00:39 Look, son.
01:00:42 You're gonna be okay here.
01:00:43 I want you to go inside
01:00:46 I will, Mr. Brewster.
01:00:47 - And thanks for everything.
01:00:50 - MAN: Bye-bye now, Yankee.
01:00:52 MAN 2: I'll be seeing you, hip-pockets.
01:00:55 YANKEE: Good luck.
01:00:58 Oh! Ah!
01:01:03 YANKEE: Wow.
01:01:07 Poor Babe.
01:01:11 (DINGING)
01:01:13 MAN 1: Hey, Babe! Hey, Babe!
01:01:15 (BABE SINGING)
01:01:18 Hey, how are you folks? Good to see you.
01:01:21 Babe Ruth.
01:01:23 That's Babe!
01:01:26 Get him to sign me.
01:01:29 BABE: Hey, good to see you.
01:01:35 (CHUCKLING)
01:01:37 REPORTER: Hey, Babe. When are
01:01:39 Hey, baseball is full of surprises.
01:01:43 PHOTOGRAPHER: Hey, Babe,
01:01:46 I believe the ragamuffin convention
01:01:51 But I need to see Babe.
01:01:53 As do several hundred other baseball fans.
01:02:00 - MAN: I thought you said this is...
01:02:02 (CHATTERING)
01:02:05 (LAUGHING)
01:02:08 (CHUCKLING) Hey, Lou.
01:02:16 - You little ruffian!
01:02:18 - No, no. Let me go. I just got to see Babe.
01:02:22 Hey, Mr. D. Bring that kid back over here.
01:02:25 Hey, kid, you hungry?
01:02:26 (LAUGHING)
01:02:29 (GRUNTS)
01:02:31 But Mr. Ruth, this hotel is for guests only.
01:02:35 Yeah, well, he's my guest.
01:02:37 - Yes, sir, but...
01:02:40 - Bring me one, too.
01:02:41 Hey, oy. Yankee! She, she...
01:02:45 But she... Darlin'!
01:02:47 Hey, Yankee... Hang on, Darlin'!
01:02:50 This looks like a job for Superball!
01:02:55 - So, what's your name, kid?
01:02:59 Hey, you got spunk, you know that?
01:03:01 He reminds me of me back in the day.
01:03:05 Babe, I need to talk to you about Darlin'.
01:03:10 Well, they don't get it right in the papers.
01:03:12 Darlin' and I, we...
01:03:15 You know, kid,
01:03:17 but it was almost like I could tell her
01:03:20 and she'd make it happen.
01:03:22 (CHUCKLING)
01:03:23 - Kind of crazy, right?
01:03:27 You have Darlin'?
01:03:32 SCREWIE: Get your hands off her!
01:03:34 (EXCLAIMING)
01:03:37 Ow!
01:03:39 The dumber they are, the harder they fall.
01:03:42 I was once the prettiest pine in the forest.
01:03:45 Babe always used to say,
01:03:49 Beautiful story, princess.
01:03:52 (GROANING)
01:03:54 You roll, I'll steer.
01:03:57 (HEAVING)
01:04:00 Huh?
01:04:02 Hey, what is this? Some kind of joke?
01:04:07 And unless you have a pound of roast beef,
01:04:10 Babe, I just had her.
01:04:15 Lefty Maginnis stole her.
01:04:17 I brought her all the way back here
01:04:20 I got to find her.
01:04:23 SCREWIE: Just roll... Just...
01:04:24 (GASPING)
01:04:26 - Yank.
01:04:28 - Hurry, Yank.
01:04:31 Hello.
01:04:32 (DARLIN' SCREAMING)
01:04:33 DARLIN': Help! Help!
01:04:36 Help!
01:04:41 (TIRES SCREECHING)
01:04:45 (LAUGHING)
01:04:46 (GASPING)
01:04:47 (HEAVING)
01:04:49 - DARLIN': Help! Help!
01:04:59 (CHEERING)
01:05:04 So tragic.
01:05:08 the amazing Babe Ruth's last turn at plate
01:05:14 Will he go down in three pitches,
01:05:16 - Yank, don't listen to him.
01:05:21 He doesn't need a magic bat.
01:05:23 Really? And yet you tried so hard
01:05:27 What do you say we listen to the radio
01:05:30 ANNOUNCER: And it looks like the Cubs
01:05:34 The Yankees trail the Cubs
01:05:36 - Come on, Babe.
01:05:38 Come on.
01:05:39 Here's the pitch. Swing, and strike three.
01:05:44 That's going to send Babe
01:05:46 Oh, my Babe.
01:05:47 Which now looks more like
01:05:51 and with only two outs to go,
01:05:53 Well, I believe that's gonna do it
01:05:57 (LAUGHING)
01:06:02 Oh... I suppose
01:06:06 I hope you get splinters everywhere.
01:06:09 Of course there's always next year.
01:06:12 Maybe I'll take her
01:06:13 There're some beavers there
01:06:17 Give it a little nibble.
01:06:18 (IMITATING NIBBLING)
01:06:21 I suppose I should be heading down to the
01:06:25 You just stay put, little Yankee.
01:06:27 I'm sure your parents have given up
01:06:30 The orphanage should be here any minute
01:06:33 Just walk in saying,
01:06:34 "I'm the boy who lost Babe Ruth's bat
01:06:38 "How're you folks doing?"
01:06:44 Sleep on that, Yankee.
01:06:46 (LAUGHING)
01:06:48 (COUGHING)
01:06:51 So what's the plan, Yank?
01:06:53 - There is no plan, Screwie.
01:06:56 - Great. What do we do first?
01:06:59 There is nothing we can do.
01:07:03 Babe struck out. We failed.
01:07:05 You were right, Screwie. I'm just a kid.
01:07:10 I should have just quit.
01:07:12 That's it? You're laying down your bat?
01:07:15 You know, when I landed in that sandlot,
01:07:17 I thought, "That's it.
01:07:21 But then you came along.
01:07:23 And there was all this...
01:07:25 and the thing with the apples
01:07:30 You made a believer out of me.
01:07:32 I wasn't right, kid. Not at all.
01:07:35 So what, the Yankees lose a game?
01:07:39 So Babe can set his millionth record?
01:07:42 Did Babe teach you how to throw?
01:07:47 Why did you do this, Yankee? Why?
01:07:51 - To help my dad.
01:07:56 Are you gonna keep swingin'?
01:08:03 I thought baseball
01:08:06 I'm not talking about baseball.
01:08:17 - Darlin', we gotta...
01:08:21 Yankee, I would be honored to help save
01:08:26 And here I thought you were
01:08:29 - All right...
01:08:31 that under that tough leather shell
01:08:34 - Enough already.
01:08:37 Unless, of course,
01:08:41 You did good, baseball.
01:08:44 Thanks, bat.
01:08:46 - So how're we getting out of here?
01:08:52 - It doesn't open.
01:08:57 Smasharoonie.
01:09:02 Screwie, are you sure?
01:09:03 Look at me.
01:09:06 Now, let's smash some glass!
01:09:11 (YELLING)
01:09:15 Okay, I think
01:09:18 Try again.
01:09:19 (CHUCKLING)
01:09:23 (GRUNTING)
01:09:25 Play ball!
01:09:26 (GLASS SHATTERING)
01:09:31 Screwie, where are you?
01:09:33 (GROANING)
01:09:36 Don't worry about me. Get to the Babe.
01:09:39 Hey, a foul ball.
01:09:41 I just can't shake that, can I?
01:09:43 Whoa!
01:09:47 Whoa!
01:09:50 (EXCLAIMING)
01:09:56 (EXCLAIMING)
01:09:59 (YELLING)
01:10:07 (GRUNTING)
01:10:09 You see, baseball is about teamwork,
01:10:13 What the?
01:10:14 MAN: Hey, kid!
01:10:15 MAN 3: Don't go down there.
01:10:16 Lou, that kid, I... I know that kid.
01:10:18 You remember that kid. That's the...
01:10:20 ANNOUNCER: Wait a minute.
01:10:21 There seems to be some sort of
01:10:24 The ushers are chasing someone
01:10:25 I can't quite see who it is.
01:10:27 Well, the ushers appear to be chasing
01:10:33 He looks to be about 10 years old.
01:10:36 (SIREN WAILING)
01:10:37 and let me tell you, folks,
01:10:38 he's really giving the Cubs personnel
01:10:41 (CROWD GASPING)
01:10:43 (GROANING)
01:10:45 GUARD: Hey, kid!
01:10:46 (PANTING)
01:10:48 Strike three! What the hey?
01:10:51 - Move! Move!
01:10:53 Aren't you playing, huh, Yank?
01:10:54 Hey, kid. What are you doing here?
01:10:56 Come here, get off the field!
01:10:59 - I just need to get this to Babe.
01:11:01 Hey, what're you trying to do?
01:11:03 (HEAVING)
01:11:05 Well, well, well. I'm...
01:11:09 - It's my Babe.
01:11:12 - Just like I told you.
01:11:16 I demand you call this game immediately,
01:11:21 Yeah, not so fast, short stuff.
01:11:25 Is that your bat? I didn't...
01:11:26 - Tell him, Babe. You tell him.
01:11:28 That's the most absurd thing
01:11:30 Isn't that a penalty? Shouldn't they forfeit?
01:11:33 Yankees, you got two minutes
01:11:36 or you'll forfeit the game.
01:11:37 All right, right.
01:11:40 - MAN: It's not okay. We're in bad shape.
01:11:43 Do you notice where you're standing, boy?
01:11:46 Home plate in the middle
01:11:50 Now how does that feel, slugger?
01:11:53 You're looking good, Yankee.
01:11:55 - Don't you think so, Babe? Babe? Babe!
01:11:58 - Big man, look over here!
01:11:59 - What are you doing?
01:12:02 Yeah, look at this team.
01:12:06 Who can we put at the plate
01:12:09 Keep this team from
01:12:12 DARLIN': Look at the boy
01:12:14 Ain't he something? Listen.
01:12:16 Hey! You hear me talking to you?
01:12:19 - Huh?
01:12:22 Babe, look at us.
01:12:25 (CHUCKLING)
01:12:26 I know who's gonna bat. Him.
01:12:29 Babe, forget it. This isn't Little League.
01:12:32 He's just a kid.
01:12:34 This kid brought Darlin' from New York
01:12:37 If he can do that, he can do anything.
01:12:40 Come on, guys. This is baseball.
01:12:44 What do you say?
01:12:46 Hmm.
01:12:48 All right, Yankees. Time's up.
01:12:51 - Him. There's our hitter.
01:12:53 - What?
01:12:55 (STAMMERING) I... I don't know about this.
01:12:57 You are about to bat in the World Series!
01:13:01 (LAUGHING)
01:13:04 I guess you guys really are desperate.
01:13:07 (LAUGHING)
01:13:10 (WHEEZING)
01:13:13 I know, I have no strike zone,
01:13:17 Of course you swing.
01:13:21 But, Babe,
01:13:24 Yeah, well...
01:13:25 (CHUCKLING)
01:13:26 I don't want her to hear this,
01:13:30 it's the batter.
01:13:33 Now go get them, kid.
01:13:36 So what's happening? What did I miss?
01:13:37 - Yankee's gonna pinch hit.
01:13:41 I mean, what a great idea! Wow!
01:13:44 Who came up with that one?
01:13:47 - Screwie!
01:13:50 and I'll be right here the whole time
01:13:52 Batter up!
01:13:54 SCREWIE: Whoa! Scratch that.
01:13:57 (LAUGHING)
01:14:00 I thought it was supposed to be Babe,
01:14:03 ANNOUNCER: Well, sports fans,
01:14:05 a 10-year-old boy in as the pinch hitter.
01:14:08 - A boy? What, are they kidding?
01:14:10 for the young rookie.
01:14:11 - It's Yankee Irving.
01:14:14 Now batting for the New York Yankees,
01:14:19 - That's my boy!
01:14:22 MAN: They're putting him in the game.
01:14:28 Okay, Lefty, all you have to do
01:14:32 Just finish it!
01:14:33 Okay, kid, you're about to lose
01:14:41 Settle in, Yank. You can do this!
01:14:47 Don't just stand there, you gotta swing.
01:14:50 Strike one!
01:14:52 Okay, now you know
01:14:55 He can do it.
01:14:57 (GASPING)
01:15:04 Watch me, now, watch me!
01:15:07 - Strike two!
01:15:10 Come on now, sugar.
01:15:13 DAD: Yank!
01:15:14 MOM: Yankee, we're here!
01:15:16 - Yank!
01:15:18 Mom? Dad?
01:15:19 - Just swing!
01:15:26 (CHUCKLING)
01:15:31 BREWSTER: You get your feet set right,
01:15:35 MARTI: Keep your eye on the ball.
01:15:38 JACK: If Babe can do it, so can you.
01:15:43 - Oh, my.
01:15:47 (SNORTING)
01:15:50 (BLOWING NOSE)
01:15:55 (CHUCKLING)
01:15:57 I can't believe you just blew
01:16:03 Come on, Yankee.
01:16:10 Take your time. Focus!
01:16:12 (HEAVING)
01:16:17 (GRUNTS)
01:16:20 Uh-oh.
01:16:21 (WHOOPING)
01:16:22 I'm going! I'm going! I'm not going.
01:16:29 Run!
01:16:30 (CHEERING)
01:16:31 ANNOUNCER: And he hit it!
01:16:33 Go, go, go, go, go.
01:16:35 It's a short blooper
01:16:37 I said I got it.
01:16:40 It sails right past Taylor,
01:16:44 Go for second! Go for second!
01:16:47 ANNOUNCER: Irving rounds first base
01:16:50 Slide, Yankee!
01:16:52 Irving is rounding second
01:16:54 but I don't think he's gonna make it, folks.
01:16:57 - DAD: Go, Yankee, go!
01:16:59 Move it! Move it!
01:17:02 Lefty Maginnis is covering... Holy cow!
01:17:06 - Irving just...
01:17:09 - Come on, Yankee!
01:17:11 Oh, this is gonna be close, folks.
01:17:13 Hedley has come up with the ball
01:17:16 - The fun's over, you little runt!
01:17:19 - The boy is not slowing down!
01:17:22 SCREWIE: Slide!
01:17:24 (GRUNTS)
01:17:26 Or not slide!
01:17:31 (YELLING)
01:17:35 Safe!
01:17:36 (CHEERING)
01:17:37 - Way to go!
01:17:39 How about that kid, huh?
01:17:41 Oh, no! No!
01:17:44 That's a little Tiger if I ever seen one.
01:17:45 He did it! That's my Yankee!
01:17:48 ALL: Yankee! Yankee! Yankee!
01:17:52 Hey, Yank! We're coming down!
01:17:54 That's my friend!
01:17:55 Ow! Ow!
01:17:57 Oh, that's me.
01:18:03 - We did it, Darlin'.
01:18:06 Like Babe said,
01:18:08 "It's not the bat, it's the batter."
01:18:12 Listen to them, kid! They love you!
01:18:15 They're cheering for you, too, Screwie!
01:18:17 Can you believe it? I'm a home run ball!
01:18:21 Yahoo!
01:18:24 You always were.
01:18:28 BABE: Way to go, kid.
01:18:34 Thanks, Babe.
01:18:38 MOM: Yankee.
01:18:40 - Yankee.
01:18:43 Mom! Dad!
01:18:45 - I did it, Dad. I did it.
01:18:50 - You just kept swinging.
01:18:55 SCREWIE: Yankee's home run sparked
01:18:59 Babe himself drove in four.
01:19:02 And when the Cubs came to bat,
01:19:04 they went down, one, two, three.
01:19:09 The Yankees won the World Series.
01:19:11 And it just goes to show you,
01:19:13 you can be the smallest,
01:19:16 you can be the worst player on the field,
01:19:18 but when people tell you you're no good,
01:19:22 you know what you do?
01:19:24 You just keep on swinging.
01:19:31 - (CHUCKLING) Hello!
01:19:46 (WHOOPING)
01:19:47 Yeah!
01:19:48 (BARKING)
01:19:49 Uh-oh.
01:19:53 (YELLING)
01:19:56 (LAUGHING)
01:20:05 All right, all right. That's enough.
01:20:06 All right, Yankee.
01:20:10 (WHOOPS)
