Synopsis: [From Lubin promotional materials] Brown is a base-ball fan. He goes out to see the game. Before going to the base-ball game he takes a few high balls, so when he comes to the field he sees things. The players run the bases backwards; they make a home run over the 3d base and 1st base to the plate, and instead of the player being thrown out he is thrown in. After the game is over, Brown is taken home by a friend, and as usual, the friend gets all that is coming to him by Mrs. Brown who thinks he is responsible for Mr. Brown’s condition. A screamingly funny film.
