Plot


The film's main character is Bobo the Elephant, making his first appearance since Hobo Bobo, which was also directed by McKimson. Bobo is a baseball team mascot for the lean and meek Sweetwater Shnooks, all of whom are rendered unconscious by their opponents, the husky and brutal Greenville Goons. Just as a victory by the Goons seems nearly inevitable, Bobo singlehandedly rallies his team back for a win in the bottom of the ninth inning.


Overview


Robert McKimson directed the animated cartoon from a story (lifted in part from the Friz Freleng/Michael Maltese 1946 opus Baseball Bugs) by Sid Marcus and animator Ben Washam. Animation was done from Robert Givens' layout by Charles McKimson, Herman Cohen, Rod Scribner and Phil DeLara with backgrounds by Richard H. Thomas and music by Carl Stalling. Voices were provided by Mel Blanc and an uncredited Robert C. Bruce as a play-by-play announcer.
