Storyline
Featured review
A League of Their Own
Old-time baseball player Clyde becomes the manager of a girl's softball team in this comedy that plays to his strength as a comic reactor. Lots of good jokes, far more believable situations than most Columbia comedy shorts, probably due to Charley Chase as one of the producers. Highly recommended.
Andy Clyde started out in the silent era working for Sennet, but the sound era found him toiling in the short subjects department of Columbia, as well as the usual supporting roles as comic western sidekick, plus good roles wherever a Scotchman was needed -- he is easily found in the RKO version of Barrie's THE LITTLE MINISTER. His number of Columbia shorts is exceeded only by the Three Stooges, and are much better, based on better acting and a wider range of comic takes. They're getting a little difficult to find, but are worth the time of anyone who enjoys good comedy.
