The plot's a cute mix-up-- will little Johnny become a ball player or an opera singer. With a dad like Leo (the Lip) Durocher don't bet against a baseball uniform. Actually the real draw is the cast. It's Jeanette Mac Donald sans Nelson Eddy in her TV debut. Her role here is mostly subdued until, that is, she sings. Then, oddly, there's the lady-like Laraine Day along with her real-life uncouth hubby Durocher. The latter are one of the unlikeliest marital pairings in an industry full of the unlikely. Something about opposites attracting, I guess. Actually Leo the Lip is a surprisingly good actor, legendary for his bluster as a baseball Hall Of Fame head coach. Also, shouldn't forget ace supporting players Cowan and Darwell, making this a cast of players worth catching up with. Also: IMDB doesn't indicate whether young Caiazza's expert singing was dubbed or not. Either way, it's compelling. Nonetheless, I can't help mentioning I was a bit put-off by the brief, rather romantic duet between a middle-age MacDonald and the youthful Caiazza. Anyway, it's a chance to catch a rather novel assemblage of players blending into an amusing musical trifle.
