The story

Elmer Kane is a rookie ballplayer with the Chicago Cubs whose ego is matched only by his appetite. Because he is not only vain but naïve, Elmer's teammates take great delight in pulling practical jokes on him. Still, he is so valuable a player that the Cubs management hides the letters from his hometown sweetheart Nellie, so that Elmer won't bolt the team and head for home.
