- StarsHarry F. MillardeMarguerite CourtotHenry HallamAn air of excitement pervades the little town of Squashville. The local baseball team is to cross bats with the determined organization from Stringtown and the game will decide the season's championship. Mamie Wallace, an ardent enthusiast, appears on the field with her father and greets her sweetheart, Montjoy Jones, who, resplendent in his uniform, assures his friends that Squashville will capture the pennant. It is a hotly contested game and as the final inning approaches Squashville has a lead of three runs. The local pitcher wavers momentarily and the visitors fill the bases. Now comes the crucial moment. A high fly is driven toward Montjoy, who makes a terrible muff and loses the game and the championship. Montjoy becomes a stranger in his own town. His friends desert him and no one has a kind word. The love of his sweetheart turns cold and her father forbids, the disgraced player from entering the house. The outcast seeks the solace of sleep and has a wonderful dream. He plays the game again. This time he catches the fly and retires the side. He is acclaimed the hero of the hour. It happens that a scout for the New York Giants witnesses the game and wires to Manager John McGraw, who has his team in training at Marlin, Texas. Acting upon the scout's advice, McGraw sends a contract to Jones, who loses no time in preparing to join the team. Squashville gives its "first citizen" a rousing send-off. At Marlin Montjoy reports to McGraw and meets the famous veterans who have brought two championships to New York. McGraw and Mathewson, the peerless pitcher, take the recruit in hand. He has a severe lesson in sliding and McGraw shows him how to bat. Mathewson's fast curves put the young fellow on his mettle. After the training season the team goes to New York for the first game of the season. Montjoy has shown such skill with the bat that he is sent in a "pinch hitter" and knocks out a home run, which clinches the game for the Giants. Modestly he submits to an interview and news of his fame reaches the home town. Mamie and her father determine to see the famous star in action and make a trip to New York. It is a spirited game that the Wallaces witness. One sensational play follows another and finally the great Mathewson is called up to replace a weakening pitcher. A hit off the famous twirler causes alarm. Mathewson sees an opportunity to work an extraordinary play and confers with Montjoy, who has been sent to the shortstop position. The result is a lightning triple play. Again Montjoy is the hero. As he passes one of the boxes he sees Mamie applauding him. What a pleasure it is to pass by and ignore her. And then he wakes up. The stern reality of his position strikes home as he sees a note thrust under the door. The note is from Mamie, stating that after much persuasion she has prevailed upon her father to permit Montjoy to call, but father has declared that if baseball is mentioned, the player will have to "beat it," Monty throws bat and glove into the street and hastens to his sweetheart's home.

- "The umpire makes a decision that Casey doesn't like, and an argument follows, during which Casey deftly trips him up, and continues the argument on the ground.

Housemaid Kitty and cook Mary can see nothing but Casey. Grady, a police officer, is his rival for Kitty's love. Mudville and Hicksville Clubs are to play their final game for the championship. Casey's first hit is a home run. Mudville cheers him to the echo. In the last half of the ninth inning, Mudville is at the bat, two men on bases and two out. "Casey at the bat," shouts the crowd. He takes his place with all the confidence of a hero. With a cheering salute to the Mudville rooters, "Watch me boys!" he strikes out. The game is over, the score is, Hicksville 9, and Mudville, 7. Casey is a fallen idol. He makes a lone sneak to Kitty's home. She has already heard of his overthrow. He peeks through the window as the rain descends in torrents and beholds Grady, his rival, being feted and petted by Kitty and the cook.
- DirectorLloyd IngrahamStarsDeWolf Hopper Sr.Kate ToncrayMae GiraciCasey lives with his sister and works in Hicks' general store and post office. The greatest thing in his life is his love for his little niece. To the people of Mudville, Casey is a hero because of his ability to win ball games for their team. Casey is a slugger of worldwide renown, but off the ball field his uncouth ways deprive him of the friendship of any but a half-wit, who follows him around, and the little children to whom he is a hero. Casey develops a love for Angevine, daughter of Judge Blodgett, but she is in love with Bert Collins, who has just returned from college and has been engaged as a pitcher for Frogtown, Mudville's greatest rival for baseball honors. In the meantime Hicks takes to robbing the mails. Casey becomes suspicious of him and about the time he finds evidence of Hicks' guilt, a stranger comes to town. The second game of the big series between Mudville and Frogtown goes to the latter because Casey, who has burned his hands at a country dance where he carried out an oil lamp that exploded, cannot play. But the final game arrives and Casey is ready. Bert is up against it because Angevine's rather has told him he must be able to show $2,000 before he can hope to win his daughter. He gets his mother to mortgage their home and with the money she lends him, he bets with Hicks on the final game. Just before game time, Casey sends word he can't be there because his little niece has fallen from a tree and is dangerously hurt. Hicks is in despair and rushes to Casey's house, only to be kicked out. In the meantime Frogtown forges ahead and the crowd yells for Casey. Casey finally consents to go and leaves the half-wit to watch at the little girl's bedside. He reaches the grounds in the last half of the ninth inning. Mudville is two runs behind; there are two out and two on base. Casey goes to bat. Just at the moment when the pitcher is getting ready to throw the third strike, for Casey always allowed two strikes to be called, the half-wit enters the grounds. Casey sees him, thinks the little girl is dead and strikes out. But the little girl is better; her father, who has been away, returns. Angevine is happy with her lover; the town turns on Casey as a fallen hero and with nothing to hold him, he packs his effects in a little bundle and trudges down the railroad tracks away from the town that has been his home all the years of his life.
