[Antimanele104]

[legion999]

That asshole catcher was just asking for it

[EmporerAaron]

this is what cartoons should be today, non of this crap they have on tv today

[EmporerAaron]

[foxnbccbsabc]

@EmporerAaron He was a famous comedienne

[SulliMike241]

4 people don't appreciate classic cartoons.

[Gundamknight100]

[SulliMike241]

[saitamme]

@SulliMike241 oops, meant to be a reply to the 4 people who don't appreciate classic cartoons.

[saitamme]

@saitamme

[EmporerAaron]

why did the blind umpire carry those pencils in a cup?

[ricsanta1]

I think one of the funniest gags is at 0:24 -- the baserunner stops his slide into home plate right in mid-air and asks the narrator the following:

"Hey, wait a minute! Didn't you forget something? Who made this picture? How about the MGM title, the lion roar and all that kinda stuff?"

ROTFL!

[TakeshiHameki]

Four guys watched Disney in there youth.

[Gundamknight100]

He got it!!!

[cumulo25]

3:00 typical baseball player

[mrantman441]

Tex Avery was the best cartoon imprevisor ever. Many cartoontist learned from him, Chuck Jones hanna-Barbera, you name it. Tex Avery's cartoons will never ever be matched by anyone else. Period the end!!!

[billc756]

Hey, wait a minute! There's no crying in Baseball!!

[penguinrobotme]

goofy expresion 4:30



[Blakefe]

what does 4F mean?

[cover078]

@Blakefe this is a code/term from ww2 used fir weeding out enlisted men, 4F means unfit for service, while 1A is fit for service.

[looneywoman]

@Blakefe 4F is a WWII-drafting term meaning a person was unable to be drafted, and thus exempted. The opposite of that was 1A.

[PieFights]

Here we see his approch shot nice release stright down the middle of the ally he just thew a perfect strike

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

0:17, Slouch is out on the plate! *WHAM!!!*

[KUirEE]

5:46-6:04 LMFAO He Really did a number on the catcher ..............I did sorta the same thing to my little cousin when I was playin baseball on the Wii.

[SimuLord]

That's the old cartoon, Tex! That's the old stuff!

[MWolfL]

Tex Avery is a comedy genius!

[Bladepaw18]

that's the old stuff!!!!! I love it!!!!!

[tccballer]

I LOVE THE CATCHER!!! lol hahaha

[Thanatos595]

0:17 LOL now that is a KO

[RSop63]

"and will now serve a minute of silence."

[remixchild]

4:55-5:00 if thats how they warm up the pitcher then warm me up

[WSenator1]

@remixchild - If it's a doubleheader, you can get me FOUR of 'em!

[DragonLord1975]

The cartoon begins BEFORE the credits and the MGM Logo started!

[ChiTown7721]

3:02 to 3:09 That's today's major league ballplayers!

[Ogiichidawg]

i got it i got it...i guess he got it huh?

[Bittboy]

"KILL THE UMPIRE! BLA BLA BLA! *umpire gets shot* Oh **** me..."

[ZeksterMesker]

"Any similarity between the title of this picture and the story that follows is purely an accident." XD gotta love tex avery cartoons. guaranteed laughter!

[beasst94]

anybody see a similar cartoon in which theres a turtle catcher?

[NinjaGhostScorpion]

PO'ed Fan-"THE UMPIRE'S BLIND!!! THE UMPIRE'S BLIND!!!"

Umpire (Wearing black glasses and holding a white cane)-"Oh, I am not!"

[looneywoman]

2:18 was probably funny in its day; not so much after Natasha Richardson, though...:(

[AkihiroHattori52455]

@looneywoman She suffered from a fatal head injury while taking a skiing lesson. How does this joke have anything to do with that? Even if it did have anything to do with this, so what? This is a cartoon. Should they ban all cartoons with simulated plane crashes because of 9/11?

[looneywoman]

@AkihiroHattori52455 No, of course not! And I couldn't agree more. Merely pointing out the irony, that's all, not suggesting any sort of restriction at all.

And it's *because* there's no way that could have been anticipated at the time the cartoon was made that it strikes me now as being so eerie. If *that* makes any sense...

[EmporerAaron]

@AkihiroHattori52455 where does it have anything about 9/11 in this cartoon?

[foxnbccbsabc]

@EmporerAaron Before that time

[remixchild]

if thats how you warm up a pitcher, then put me in the game

[OldsVistaCruiser]

A little predictive! The player who wears "B-19" could be a premonition of Greg Luzinski, a Phillies player of the 1970s who was built like that.

The B-19 part? Luzinski was called "Bull" - and he wore #19!

[looneywoman]

Mark McGwire, maybe?

[ClassicTVMan81]

"The guy who thought of this corny gag - isn't with us anymore" is a reference to writer Rich Hogan.

[waco5257]

''Sad ending isn't it ? ^^'' xD xD xD xD

[remixchild]

well thats on way to shut him up

[growlwolf1]

it great wonderfully it thank posting.

[fjdxguitar]

Lol that sad ending gag and also the Last Aid gag

[mrslick58]

5:02 man can some 1 say steriods

[dcbandnerd]

The epitome of an Avery cartoon. Site gags, puns, social commentary, and ALWAYS breaking that pesky fourth wall.

[jgbennie]

And war references. The 1-A joke may not have been too far from the truth.

And a great pop culture reference. Pepsodent with Irium. Competitor Ipana toothpaste advertised 'The Smile of Beauty.'

[pwdante3]

the umpire`s blind, the umpire`s blind...

i am not. lol

[WSenator1]

@pwdante3 - In the REAL baseball games of 2010, they sure are!

[TheMadPacX]

lol @ the 1st 30 seconds

[DojoKanojoShow]

6:00 He deserves it! :D

[dontFCKNtrustME]

i dont get the w.c. field gag.

[TheMadPacX]

Well it was named after W.C. Fields an American Comedian

[dontFCKNtrustME]

ooohhh! ok. thanks for explaining it to me. :D

[NiNeTeeN87k]

i dont get the w.c. field gag.
