in a move of stunning swiftness,
seizes and occupies czechoslovakia.
3
00:00:33,867 --> 00:00:36,028
Czech president, Emil hacha,
is summoned to Munich
4
00:00:36,161 --> 00:00:39,494
and is forced to sign a communiqué
calling for peace and order
5
00:00:39,623 --> 00:00:41,284
and placing the fate
of the Czech people
6
00:00:41,416 --> 00:00:43,828
into the hands of the flihrer
of the German reich.
7
00:00:43,961 --> 00:00:48,705
And deep shadows of another
world war spread over the universe.

00:00:54,763 --> 00:00:56,469

Harold b. Funston finds
these double-edged snacks
11
00:00:59,643 --> 00:01:01,725
really cut those hunger pangs.
12
00:01:01,853 --> 00:01:05,141
My, my! Mother never
fixed them like this.
13
00:01:05,274 --> 00:01:08,107
Now it's time for a little nap
after lunch.
14
00:01:08,235 --> 00:01:10,726
Incidentally, you innerspring lovers
shouldn't watch
15
00:01:10,862 --> 00:01:12,693
if you can't stand the pressure.
16
00:01:12,823 --> 00:01:14,814
Here's Charlie joining Harold.
17
00:01:14,950 --> 00:01:18,283
Let's hope Harold
knows not to disagree with him.
18
00:01:18,412 --> 00:01:23,031
After this, he may only be able to
get work as a mould for Swiss cheese.
19
00:01:23,166 --> 00:01:24,872
Oh, my aching back!
20
00:01:25,627 --> 00:01:29,370
Now Harold's asked to show us
his new method for quitting smoking.
21
00:01:29,506 --> 00:01:33,044
This sure-fire method is not advised
for everyone though,
22
00:01:33,176 --> 00:01:37,670
unless you really happen to like
smoked tongue. Your own, that is.

Yankee stadium plays host
24
00:01:43,687 --> 00:01:45,598
to a stunning pre-season
exhibition game
25
00:01:45,731 --> 00:01:48,347
between the Kansas City monarchs
of the negro American league
26
00:01:48,483 --> 00:01:50,769
and the Philadelphia stars
of the negro national league.
27
00:01:50,902 --> 00:01:52,733
Leagues formed because
of the unwritten law
28
00:01:52,863 --> 00:01:55,024
that bars negroes from playing
on white teams.
29
00:01:55,157 --> 00:01:56,738
With this Jim crowism
on the diamond,
30
00:01:56,867 --> 00:01:59,700
the white leagues deprive
themselves of much amazing talent.
31
00:01:59,828 --> 00:02:01,614
Hurling for the monarchs
is satchel Paige,
32
00:02:01,747 --> 00:02:03,578
one of the most famous
of the negro pitchers,
33
00:02:03,707 --> 00:02:06,619
along with bingo long
of the st Louis ebony aces.
34
00:02:06,752 --> 00:02:10,745
Here, Paige's amazing hesitation
pitch continues to baffle hitters.
35
00:02:10,881 --> 00:02:12,997
The stars go down
with a score of five to nothing,
36
00:02:13,133 --> 00:02:15,173
giving Paige another
in a long string of no-hitters.
37
00:02:15,302 --> 00:02:17,042
The monarchs' win
puts them up next week
38
00:02:17,179 --> 00:02:19,420
against the negro world champion
homestead grays,
39
00:02:19,556 --> 00:02:23,424
whose slugger, Josh Gibson,
averages 55 home runs a season,
40
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,721
a record matched only
by Leon Carter
41
00:02:25,854 --> 00:02:27,435
of the Baltimore elite giants.
42
00:02:27,564 --> 00:02:29,555
Gibson is the only player,
black or white,
43
00:02:29,691 --> 00:02:33,104
who has hit a home run
over the third tier of yankee stadium,
44
00:02:33,236 --> 00:02:35,101
beating even
the great babe Ruth.
45
00:02:35,238 --> 00:02:37,175
Though white fans don't often
see these teams play,
46
00:02:37,199 --> 00:02:39,679
they should spend an afternoon
watching these amazing athletes,
47
00:02:39,743 --> 00:02:44,578
who often showboat and clown,
but never fail to play great baseball!

Y'all watch bingo long

Not a man on the field
to back him up.

00:03:05,894 --> 00:03:09,978
You'll never see a game like this
as long as you live.

Okay, c'mon, baby. C'mon, baby.

You heard right.
Where'd you lay eyes on her?
91

Well, if that's Violet grandy
you're talkin' about,

00:06:32,058 --> 00:06:34,470
I laid more than eyes
on her already.

On that final day,
let us put you away.
106

Come on! Come on, rookie.
Pass it right down here.

00:08:43,314 --> 00:08:45,145
Oh, my lord! Oh, my lord!

All right, gather "round here.

Doctor say rainbow
gonna pull through okay.
133
00:09:25,523 --> 00:09:27,013
As for baseball,
he's all washed up.
134
00:09:29,110 --> 00:09:33,103
He done inflicted a head concussion.
Lucky it was rainbow.
135
00:09:33,239 --> 00:09:35,776
Losing him don't affect our chances
for the pennant much.
136
00:09:37,368 --> 00:09:42,203
Now, seein' as how his family live all
the way down in Raleigh, north Carolina,
137
00:09:42,332 --> 00:09:44,823
I'm docking each of you a day's pay
to cover his fare.
138
00:09:44,959 --> 00:09:46,039
Five dollars each?
139
00:09:46,169 --> 00:09:48,251
Sallie, er...
140
00:09:48,379 --> 00:09:51,212
I mean, you know, we ain't the owner
of the team. You are.
141
00:09:51,341 --> 00:09:53,319
I mean, it ain't right for you
to be comin' to the players
142
00:09:53,343 --> 00:09:54,862
to take care of somethin'
you supposed to be takin' care of.
143
00:09:54,886 --> 00:09:57,593
Docking you double, long. “What?
144
00:10:00,391 --> 00:10:03,724
Five dollars to cover his fare,
145
00:10:03,853 --> 00:10:07,311
five dollars for fomentin' dissension
on my team.
146
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,352
I ain't fomentin' nothin'.
I'm just voicing my opinion.
147
00:10:10,485 --> 00:10:13,648
Around me,
you ain't got no opinion.
148
00:10:13,780 --> 00:10:16,271
I built this team, from nothin'.
149
00:10:16,407 --> 00:10:18,898
When everybody else
couldn't even get nigger work.
150
00:10:19,035 --> 00:10:22,619
I'll still be runnin' it when you're
a feeble old bum like furry Taylor.
151
00:10:22,747 --> 00:10:24,908
You know what I mean, boy?
152
00:10:25,041 --> 00:10:28,078
Now, anybody else here
worried about what's right,
153
00:10:28,211 --> 00:10:32,545
I hear there's plenty of nigger work
just across the river with wages to match.
154
00:10:32,674 --> 00:10:34,026
Player:
Hey, rainbow, what's happenin'?
155
00:10:34,050 --> 00:10:35,836
All: Hey, rainbow!
156
00:10:36,553 --> 00:10:40,045
Rainbow, how you doin', man?
You caught yourself a mean one, didn't you?
157
00:10:40,181 --> 00:10:43,344
And lost the power of speakin'.
Can't even say his own name.
158
00:10:43,476 --> 00:10:45,329
Player ♪1:
Hell, rainbow, you don't look too good.
159
00:10:45,353 --> 00:10:47,389
Player ♪2:
He look the same to me.
160
00:10:48,982 --> 00:10:53,146
Hey, boss, how 'bout givin' rainbow a job
as an Usher down at the funeral parlour?
161
00:10:53,278 --> 00:10:55,109
Sallie: Price here is my Usher.
162
00:10:57,824 --> 00:11:00,315
How 'bout he push a broom
or dig a grave or two, man?
163
00:11:00,451 --> 00:11:02,783
All I got's an opening
in the choir.
164
00:11:02,912 --> 00:11:05,324
Rainbow's voice
ain't what it used to be.
165
00:11:05,456 --> 00:11:07,947
- Player ♪3: Give him somethin' to do.
- Player ♪4: Anythin'.
166
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,918
You want some social security,

167
00:11:12,922 --> 00:11:16,085
you go have yourself a nice,
long talk with mr Roosevelt.
168
00:11:19,637 --> 00:11:20,948
Preacher:
This here is for everybody.
169
00:11:20,972 --> 00:11:24,385
We have to protect
our brothers and sisters.
170
00:11:24,517 --> 00:11:29,181
Why? Because we love 'em!
We don't need no government!
171
00:11:29,314 --> 00:11:32,147
Boy: Hey, bingo! Bingo!
172
00:11:32,275 --> 00:11:34,687
Let me get your autograph.
Great game!
173
00:11:34,819 --> 00:11:38,061
Bingo!
Let me watch your car for you.
174
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:43,991
Preacher:
And if we do what's right,
175
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,863
there won't be no more stealin' and
killin'. No more stealin' and killin...
176
00:11:47,999 --> 00:11:50,411
- Hi, bingo.
- How you doin', darlin'? You lookin' pretty.
177
00:11:50,543 --> 00:11:52,408
If we teach 'em what's right.
178
00:11:52,545 --> 00:11:54,536
Hey, Bobby.
179
00:11:54,672 --> 00:11:57,254
- Bingo! Hey, bingo!
- Hey, Willie!
180
00:11:57,383 --> 00:11:59,486
You know, that was a hell of a game
you pitched today.
181
00:11:59,510 --> 00:12:01,501
- Every day.
- How do you like this here?
182
00:12:01,638 --> 00:12:03,128
I love it, love it. Love it!
183
00:12:03,264 --> 00:12:05,676
Lookin' for me, bingo?
184
00:12:05,808 --> 00:12:08,470
Er... no, Violet.
You done disappointed me.
185
00:12:08,603 --> 00:12:10,873
I'm gonna give pearline the chance
she's been beggin' for.
186
00:12:10,897 --> 00:12:14,731
Well, pearline ain't beggin'
no more, honey.
187
00:12:14,859 --> 00:12:16,850
Don't I, though?
188
00:12:20,615 --> 00:12:23,857
Hey! King farouk,
come on over here.
189
00:12:32,335 --> 00:12:33,575
You know pearline, bingo?
190
00:12:33,711 --> 00:12:35,042
Er... I believe we've met.
191
00:12:35,171 --> 00:12:38,504
I was just askin' Leon
for his autograph, bingo.
192
00:12:41,302 --> 00:12:43,338
Why don't you and Violet
drag up a chair here?
193
00:12:43,471 --> 00:12:45,712
Hey, er... garcon!
194
00:12:45,848 --> 00:12:50,012
Bring mr long and his betrothed
what you done brung me.
195
00:12:51,104 --> 00:12:54,767
Don't shuffle around this table, hear?
196
00:12:54,899 --> 00:12:57,356
- How rainbow doin'?
- Bad news, Leon.
197
00:12:57,485 --> 00:13:00,397
Bad news.
Sallie done put him on the bus.
198
00:13:01,155 --> 00:13:03,646
- Damn!
- And that ain't all.
199
00:13:03,783 --> 00:13:08,322
He done hit the team for the ticket.
Just don't seem fair.
200
00:13:08,454 --> 00:13:10,365
What owner you ever heard of
bein' fair?
201
00:13:10,498 --> 00:13:15,162
You see, they wringing the best years
of our lives out of our manly selves.
202
00:13:15,295 --> 00:13:19,208
See what happen? Good man get hurt,
become another spare part.
203
00:13:19,340 --> 00:13:23,458
Ship him on back to the cotton field
and let the other slaves pay the fare.
204
00:13:23,594 --> 00:13:27,507
Yeah. Maybe you wind up shinin" shoes
or peddlin' pencils.
205
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,508
Hey, honey, watch your mouth there.
You're spottin' my satin.
206
00:13:32,603 --> 00:13:35,265
I guess we need pensions
just like president Roosevelt was saying.
207
00:13:36,232 --> 00:13:39,065
When you ever hear
of a master givin' a slave pension?
208
00:13:39,193 --> 00:13:41,354
Ain't nothin' gonna change
till the workers,
209
00:13:41,487 --> 00:13:44,229
what you call,
"seize the means of production".
210
00:13:44,365 --> 00:13:46,947
No. The ballplayers
gotta overthrow their owners
211
00:13:47,076 --> 00:13:49,067
and run the teams
their own selves.
212
00:13:50,621 --> 00:13:54,239
- But that a revolution.
- That the Democratic ideal, yeah.
213
00:13:54,834 --> 00:13:56,620
"Be your own man."
214
00:13:57,378 --> 00:13:59,710
W.e .b. Du bois said that.
215
00:13:59,839 --> 00:14:02,751
One of our great coloured thinkers.
Try readin' a book sometime.
216
00:14:02,884 --> 00:14:05,341
- Hey, hey. How 'bout that bourbon?
- Comin' up.
217
00:14:07,847 --> 00:14:10,338
You think we can do that?
218
00:14:10,475 --> 00:14:12,591
- Do what?
- Overthrow the owners.
219
00:14:13,770 --> 00:14:16,011
Sure! Same day we turn white.
220
00:14:16,939 --> 00:14:20,773
Mr Carter, you sure got sex appeal
when you get mad. Mm!
221
00:14:20,902 --> 00:14:22,733
Leon: Don't I though?
222
00:14:22,862 --> 00:14:26,446
Little bit later on, I'm gonna fly
off the handle altogether.
223
00:14:34,290 --> 00:14:35,893
Announcer on pa:
Greyhound bus now departing
224
00:14:35,917 --> 00:14:40,035
for flora, vincennes, louisville,
asheville, Charlotte and Raleigh.
225
00:14:40,171 --> 00:14:44,255
Hey, rainbow. C'mon, man.
You ain't goin' nowhere. Big things is up.
226
00:14:44,384 --> 00:14:46,375
I got a great idea.
227
00:15:03,069 --> 00:15:05,811
Hey, Leon. C'mon, open the door.
228
00:15:08,491 --> 00:15:10,652
Hey, Leon, there's a fire!
229
00:15:10,785 --> 00:15:12,867
If there ain't a bigger fire
goin' on out there
230
00:15:12,995 --> 00:15:15,099
than the one we got kindlin' in here,
you in a lot of trouble.
231
00:15:15,123 --> 00:15:17,309
Come on, man, put your pants on.
We got things to talk over.
232
00:15:17,333 --> 00:15:19,186
Look who I just done grabbed
off the bus. Rainbow!
233
00:15:19,210 --> 00:15:22,043
Don't bother to say hello to him,
cos he can't talk.
234
00:15:22,922 --> 00:15:25,584
Oh, no, you didn't say nothin'
about no threesies.
235
00:15:25,716 --> 00:15:28,076
Stay where you are.
These gentlemen just hit the wrong door.
236
00:15:28,177 --> 00:15:30,839
I got a generous soul,
but I ain't no Santa claus.
237
00:15:31,431 --> 00:15:32,841
Let her go, man.
238
00:15:32,974 --> 00:15:35,807
You keep givin' autographs to pearline,
you gonna run outta ink.
239
00:15:35,935 --> 00:15:37,345
Besides, big things is up!
240
00:15:37,478 --> 00:15:40,641
Yeah, big things was up
when you come barge in here.
241
00:15:40,773 --> 00:15:44,766
- Pearline, come on out, honey.
- You was right, Leon.
242
00:15:44,902 --> 00:15:47,735
And so was that Cadillac
of negro knowledge, mr Rolls-Royce.
243
00:15:47,864 --> 00:15:52,107
Du bois! W.E.B. Du bois!
244
00:15:52,243 --> 00:15:53,403
"Be your own man," he said.
245
00:15:53,536 --> 00:15:55,936
"That's the Democratic ideal.
Seize the means of production."
246
00:15:55,997 --> 00:15:58,830
- And that's just what we gonna do!
- Sure, we are!
247
00:15:58,958 --> 00:16:00,789
- Pearline!
- Pearline: Pearline, my ass!
248
00:16:00,918 --> 00:16:03,034
My sweetness. My love.
249
00:16:03,171 --> 00:16:05,913
Hey, bitch, you better get out here.
250
00:16:06,048 --> 00:16:08,790
Stand back and get ready, Leon,
cos I'm hereby announcin'
251
00:16:08,926 --> 00:16:11,383
the formation and foundation
of the one and only
252
00:16:11,512 --> 00:16:14,925
bingo long traveling all-stars
& motor kings!
253
00:16:15,057 --> 00:16:17,139
Bingo, you're talkin' in your sleep.
254
00:16:17,268 --> 00:16:20,101
Don't you touch me, Leon Carter,
with your "preverted" self!
255
00:16:20,229 --> 00:16:22,641
And that goes the same thing
for you too, Turkey.
256
00:16:22,773 --> 00:16:23,933
Good night, bingo.
257
00:16:24,066 --> 00:16:26,086
- Didn't you hear my announcement, Leon?
- Yeah, I heard you.
258
00:16:26,110 --> 00:16:27,941
Now get on outta here
and let me sleep!
259
00:16:28,070 --> 00:16:32,234
Whatever you're talkin' about,
I don't wanna hear it.
260
00:16:32,366 --> 00:16:34,573
You wanna play on your own team,
be your own owner?
261
00:16:35,286 --> 00:16:39,950
Listen, ever since I was ten years old
and pickin' turnips,
262
00:16:40,082 --> 00:16:41,913
I wanted to be my own man.
263
00:16:42,043 --> 00:16:45,285
Every job I had since then, from totin'
milk pails to swattin' baseballs,
264
00:16:45,421 --> 00:16:48,663
I wanted the same thing. But you come
in here with some half-baked scheme.
265
00:16:48,799 --> 00:16:51,290
It's full-baked, man!
266
00:16:51,427 --> 00:16:56,137
We goin' barnstormin'
with our own all-star team.
267
00:16:56,807 --> 00:17:00,516
Oh, yeah! Who we gonna play?
268
00:17:00,645 --> 00:17:04,513
We gonna play the... the... the...
The firehouse clubs and the local talent.
269
00:17:04,649 --> 00:17:06,890
I mean, there's good money
out there, Leon!
270
00:17:07,026 --> 00:17:09,017
Iowa, Illinois, California.
271
00:17:09,153 --> 00:17:11,590
Oh, no, there ain't nobody
gonna want to play us in California.
272
00:17:11,614 --> 00:17:14,777
Well, if that don't work, then we play
the emperor trujillo down in 'em islands.
273
00:17:14,909 --> 00:17:16,649
Them spics is crazy for baseball.
274
00:17:17,286 --> 00:17:19,698
You ever see a peso, bingo?
It got a hole in it.
275
00:17:19,830 --> 00:17:22,071
So does your big head
if you passes up this chance
276
00:17:22,208 --> 00:17:24,324
and keeps on slavin'
for Henry dunbar.
277
00:17:26,629 --> 00:17:28,870
Say... no, no, no.
278
00:17:29,006 --> 00:17:32,749
Just sayin' now that I do choose
to throw in with you.
279
00:17:34,679 --> 00:17:37,091
We ain't much of a team,
just you and me and rainbow.
280
00:17:38,349 --> 00:17:43,013
Teammate, you just leave
that problem to me.
281
00:18:10,548 --> 00:18:13,711
Hello. Am I speakin' to Emory "champ"
chambers of the Atlanta black crackers?
282
00:18:13,843 --> 00:18:16,755
- Yeah, this is me.

283
00:18:16,887 --> 00:18:18,969
- Hey, champ!
- Hey, you hear "m?
284
00:18:19,098 --> 00:18:20,429
Hey, champ, how would you like

once and for all...
286
00:18:22,935 --> 00:18:25,142
- Yeah.

287
00:18:25,271 --> 00:18:27,933
- Count me in, bingo.
- All right!
288
00:18:39,452 --> 00:18:40,862
Yes, this is Willie shively.
289
00:18:40,995 --> 00:18:42,806
Bingo:
This is bingo long here with Leon Carter.
290
00:18:42,830 --> 00:18:44,661
- Bingo?
- Leon and me want you boys
291
00:18:44,790 --> 00:18:46,643
to make the double play
for the bingo long all-stars.
292
00:18:46,667 --> 00:18:49,158
- What do you say?
- We're on our way.
293
00:18:50,212 --> 00:18:51,702
Hey, what's this "all" mean on you?
294
00:18:51,839 --> 00:18:53,830
Well, I do it all.
You know, I do it all.
295
00:18:53,966 --> 00:18:56,048
What's this song note
doin' on me?
296
00:18:56,177 --> 00:18:58,839
A song note!
I don't know what that is.
297
00:18:58,971 --> 00:19:01,132
- Hello, fat Sam popper?
- Yeah, this is fat Sam.
298
00:19:01,265 --> 00:19:04,382
Sam, I know you got
a lot of mouths to feed.
299
00:19:04,518 --> 00:19:08,511
Hold on, bingo.
Get that mangy dog out of this house!
300
00:19:08,648 --> 00:19:10,388
Woman: What you child doin"?
301
00:19:10,524 --> 00:19:13,140
Go ahead, bingo.
Hey, I'll be right there!
302
00:19:13,277 --> 00:19:16,314
Fat Sam popper,
better known as "traveling".
303
00:19:16,447 --> 00:19:19,405
Amen.
I'm sayin' that most of us here
304
00:19:19,533 --> 00:19:21,693
- have given up the desires of our heart.
- Psst! Psst!
305
00:19:23,788 --> 00:19:26,700
Walter murchman?
That man is bad news.
306
00:19:26,832 --> 00:19:30,666
Maybe so, but he hit a ball in Chicago,
they got to duck in Detroit.
307
00:19:30,795 --> 00:19:33,878
- Walter murchman speaking.
- Hello, brother Walter.
308
00:19:34,006 --> 00:19:36,713
You're the greatest hitter
on god's green earth.
309
00:19:36,842 --> 00:19:40,084
- Shit.
- Right up there with Leon Carter!
310
00:19:40,221 --> 00:19:42,382
Isaac:
But, baby, I got to go to battin' practice.
311
00:19:42,515 --> 00:19:45,928
I know. Battin' practice
is right here and right now.
312
00:19:46,060 --> 00:19:50,975
- But, baby... Bertha, I gotta...
- Play ball.
313
00:19:55,319 --> 00:19:56,650
I'll get it, baby.
314
00:20:03,953 --> 00:20:05,944
- Hello.
- Bingo: Hello, Isaac.
315
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,071
- Bingo!
- Listen. Hey, listen.
316
00:20:08,207 --> 00:20:11,287
We hear your owner's been workin' you
overtime, but not on the baseball field.
317
00:20:13,879 --> 00:20:19,749
Listen... well, your fellow all-stars want
you to play centre field for 'em, okay?
318
00:20:20,428 --> 00:20:24,421
- I'll be right there.
- Bertha: Isaac? Isaac!
319
00:20:24,557 --> 00:20:28,550
- Who ya gonna get for right field?
- I'm callin' Charlie snow.
320
00:20:28,686 --> 00:20:31,428
Leon:
That jukebox? What you want him for?
321
00:20:31,564 --> 00:20:32,724
Bingo: He got what we need.
322
00:20:32,857 --> 00:20:35,223
The best-lookin' Franklin
you ever saw.
323
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:39,193
- Leon: Damn thing air-cooled.
- Bingo: I can't fit 'em all in my car.
324
00:20:53,252 --> 00:20:55,243
Honey:
I thought you'd like to see this.
325
00:21:37,087 --> 00:21:38,967
Charlie:
Hey, man, look at the sport page there.

purposes back in Cleveland.

I personally can guarantee you $200
at the gate for each and every appearance.

What, have I done it wrong?

00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,305
and he done misspoke hisself.
No, no.
462
00:29:37,859 --> 00:29:40,271
We don't...
We don't want no guarantee.

00:29:41,029 --> 00:29:44,863
- We wants 50% of the gate.
- You see, I... I don't know about that.
464
00:29:44,992 --> 00:29:48,200
You see, I got to consult
with the other parties, you know?
465
00:29:48,328 --> 00:29:51,161
No, you don't, either.
You can say yes or no right here.
466
00:29:51,290 --> 00:29:55,408
Now, do we do business or do we get
somebody else to book these games?
467
00:30:00,424 --> 00:30:04,417
Well, I guess ol' j.C. Holland

no business bein' here nohow!
489
00:31:23,465 --> 00:31:26,298
Now, listen here, grave digger.
490
00:31:26,426 --> 00:31:28,257
I own a team in this league too.
491
00:31:28,387 --> 00:31:31,129
And if my late husband schyler was alive,
you know what he'd say?
492
00:31:31,264 --> 00:31:35,928
Keep the fans happy and book some "extradition"
games with the all-stars. Right?
493
00:31:36,061 --> 00:31:39,269
As an owner, schyler DeWitt
was weak and he was dumb.
494
00:31:40,190 --> 00:31:42,021
As a man, he was even dumber.
495
00:31:42,150 --> 00:31:45,392
He proved that when he married
a plate of pork!
496
00:31:45,529 --> 00:31:49,272
Which is a better meal
than you ever ate, sallie Potter.
497
00:31:49,408 --> 00:31:51,761
Sallie, there's something to what
Bertha's sayin' about 'em games.
498
00:31:51,785 --> 00:31:54,197
- She's got a point.
- We got to go along.
499
00:31:54,329 --> 00:31:57,537
Come on. You men gonna be double-talked
by this ol' mama bear?
500
00:31:57,666 --> 00:31:59,998
We play them renegades
and every dumb monkey in the league
501
00:32:00,127 --> 00:32:01,617
is gonna join the revolution.
502
00:32:01,753 --> 00:32:03,994
Now, we got to ruin that team
before they gonna ruin us!
503
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,152
Just cos you can't talk,
don't mean you can't count.
504
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,742
I mean, you been doin'
a good job as treasurer.
505
00:32:39,875 --> 00:32:41,727
Ain't no reason you can't be
the team statistician.
506
00:32:41,751 --> 00:32:44,242
I mean, if you do good,
I'll tell bingo.
507
00:32:45,672 --> 00:32:49,085
We'll start with somethin' easy
like battin' averages.
508
00:32:49,217 --> 00:32:51,674
See, you take the number of times
a man been at bat
509
00:32:51,803 --> 00:32:54,795
and you divide that by the number of times
a man got a hit.
510
00:32:54,931 --> 00:32:58,423
Like me, I been at bat 100 times.
I got twenty-five hits.
511
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,393
That's simple, right?
Twenty-five go in 100 four times.
512
00:33:01,521 --> 00:33:04,183
Gives me a batting average of four.
That's wrong.
513
00:33:04,983 --> 00:33:06,473
That ain't no way to do that.
514
00:33:06,610 --> 00:33:10,273
What you gotta do is the number of times
a man's been at bat and got a hit.
515
00:33:10,405 --> 00:33:12,896
Divide that by the number of times
he swung.
516
00:33:13,033 --> 00:33:15,866
See, I been at bat a lot,
and I swung a lot.
517
00:33:15,994 --> 00:33:19,157
Let me see.
Seventy-five into 100.
518
00:33:19,289 --> 00:33:22,122
No. That would give me
a battin' average of two.
519
00:33:22,250 --> 00:33:23,956
I couldn't have
a battin' average of two!
520
00:33:24,085 --> 00:33:27,248
Nobody could have a battin' average
that bad. Could they?
521
00:33:43,396 --> 00:33:46,388
Excuse me. Which one of y'all
is mr bingo long?
522
00:33:46,525 --> 00:33:48,516
Autographs after the game, son.
523
00:33:48,652 --> 00:33:52,065
Don't want no autographs.
I's a baseball player too.
524
00:33:52,197 --> 00:33:54,609
You don't say!
What position? Quarterback?
525
00:33:57,494 --> 00:33:59,155
No, sir. Centre field.
526
00:33:59,287 --> 00:34:01,869
I want to be an all-star,
so I figured I'd come talk to you.
527
00:34:01,998 --> 00:34:05,991
We ain't runnin' no orphanage, now.
What do ya want to talk about?
528
00:34:06,127 --> 00:34:08,209
Well, I'm a pretty good
centre fielder.
529
00:34:08,338 --> 00:34:12,422
I mean, I can hit and I can run,
and I got a good glove.
530
00:34:12,551 --> 00:34:15,042
I just wanna join up and play for you,
more than anything.
531
00:34:15,178 --> 00:34:17,978
I bet you're real good, son,
but I already got myself a centre fielder.
532
00:34:18,056 --> 00:34:19,242
Now, if you wanna see a little action,
533
00:34:19,266 --> 00:34:22,429
why don't you join up
with pollard's sternville huskers?
534
00:34:22,561 --> 00:34:26,895
Well, see, mr long,
that there's just the point.
535
00:34:27,023 --> 00:34:29,890
- I done already did last year.
- Umpire: Play ball!
536
00:34:30,026 --> 00:34:31,857
Leon: Hey, bingo, looky here!
537
00:34:31,987 --> 00:34:33,773
Quarterback.
Good to see you, son.
538
00:34:33,905 --> 00:34:36,738
Hey, bingo!
Step right over here, young man.
539
00:34:36,866 --> 00:34:39,482
- Joe: Take your time, sir.
- Leon: He said take your time.
540
00:34:39,619 --> 00:34:42,201
Bingo, how do you like this here?
541
00:34:43,832 --> 00:34:45,072
How do you like this here?
542
00:34:46,126 --> 00:34:48,617
Like this over here? All right.
Come on, all right.
543
00:34:48,753 --> 00:34:50,618
Player:
Joe, Joe. Get a hit, Joe.
544
00:34:50,755 --> 00:34:53,121
Leon:
Let it go, bingo. Quarterback.
545
00:35:04,519 --> 00:35:06,100
Umpire: Safel
546
00:35:18,158 --> 00:35:21,525
Player:
Watch it. Watch that bat.
547
00:35:29,252 --> 00:35:31,368
Home plate, home plate,
home plate!
548
00:35:37,844 --> 00:35:39,254
Safe!
549
00:35:43,683 --> 00:35:46,425
Say, kid,
does you do this constantly?
550
00:35:47,687 --> 00:35:50,269
No, sir. I does it all the time.
551
00:35:58,573 --> 00:36:00,734
Bingo: It's a shame. Ninth
inning, two runs behind.
552
00:36:00,867 --> 00:36:03,028
- Come on, murch, let's hit one.
- Don't worry.
553
00:36:03,161 --> 00:36:06,324
It's goin' all the way
to baseball heaven.
554
00:36:08,917 --> 00:36:10,327
Umpire: Batter up!
555
00:36:21,721 --> 00:36:23,427
Kid: Where's the bat?
556
00:36:23,556 --> 00:36:26,548
Get a hit!
That bat ain't got no hole in it.
557
00:36:31,940 --> 00:36:34,272
C'mon! C'mon!
558
00:36:38,363 --> 00:36:41,605
Player: Go! Go! Go! Go!
559
00:36:56,923 --> 00:36:58,959
Go back!
560
00:37:16,901 --> 00:37:18,562
Joel
561
00:37:19,654 --> 00:37:21,064
umpire: You're out!
562
00:37:21,197 --> 00:37:23,813
Out? Whatcha mean, out?
What're you talkin' about, man?
563
00:37:33,752 --> 00:37:36,459
- Bingo: Say, kid, this is your lucky day.
- Mr long!
564
00:37:36,588 --> 00:37:39,079
Turns out my centre fielder's
gonna do back-up pitching.
565
00:37:39,215 --> 00:37:41,819
That bein' the case, we find ourselves
ready to take on the services
566
00:37:41,843 --> 00:37:44,835
of a promisin' young rookie
such as yourself.
567
00:37:44,971 --> 00:37:46,381
You shuckin' me or what?
568
00:37:46,514 --> 00:37:50,177
Now, we want you to understand straight off
that the big time is a hard row to hoe.
569
00:37:50,310 --> 00:37:53,973
We on the road day and night.
We hustles games where we can find 'em.
570
00:37:54,105 --> 00:37:56,596
- Yeah, we barnstormers.
- That's okay by me.
571
00:37:56,733 --> 00:37:58,853
And you gotta bring
your own glove and your own shoes.
572
00:37:58,943 --> 00:38:01,714
And you can't go runnin' to your mama
when you've been up all night now.
573
00:38:01,738 --> 00:38:03,649
Don't you worry about me.
I ain't no baby.
574
00:38:03,782 --> 00:38:05,738
And, er... the money ain't all that great.
575
00:38:05,867 --> 00:38:08,529
- That's right. Rookies get half share.
- Say what?
576
00:38:09,287 --> 00:38:13,951
Of course, you bein' a husker and all,
you ain't exactly a rookie.
577
00:38:14,083 --> 00:38:16,199
So share and share alike.
That's the all-star motto.
578
00:38:16,336 --> 00:38:17,646
- Ain't that right, Leon?
- Yeah, that's right.
579
00:38:17,670 --> 00:38:20,833
- That sounds real good.
- I wanna warn you now.
580
00:38:20,965 --> 00:38:23,456
This ain't no measly
paper contract.
581
00:38:23,593 --> 00:38:27,427
One touch, and you made yourself
a handshake deal
582
00:38:27,555 --> 00:38:31,047
with the bingo long traveling
all-stars & motor kings.
583
00:38:31,184 --> 00:38:34,426
And there ain't nothin' more solemn
and bindin' under the law
584
00:38:34,562 --> 00:38:37,053
than an agreement of this kind.
585
00:38:37,190 --> 00:38:39,431
- You count me in!
- Look out now.
586
00:38:39,567 --> 00:38:41,398
Restrain yourself.
That's my pitching hand!
587
00:38:41,528 --> 00:38:43,268
- Sorry.
- What's your name, son?
588
00:38:43,404 --> 00:38:46,237
Joseph Vanderbilt Calloway.
Esquire.
589
00:38:46,366 --> 00:38:49,950
Esquire!
Did you hear that, Leon?
590
00:38:50,078 --> 00:38:53,411
- You shakin' hands with esquire Joe!
- My pleasure.
591
00:38:54,999 --> 00:38:57,411
J you gotta take a chance
592
00:38:58,753 --> 00:39:03,838
j make your own music
when you do your dance
593
00:39:03,967 --> 00:39:06,458
j and sing it strong
594
00:39:07,470 --> 00:39:12,134
j and if you're off pitch
now and then
595
00:39:12,267 --> 00:39:15,509
j you will find that key again
596
00:39:15,645 --> 00:39:17,727
j and pretty soon the world... &
597
00:39:17,856 --> 00:39:19,187
Charlie: Whose heap is that?
598
00:39:19,315 --> 00:39:20,835
Champ:
Looks mighty deserted, mr long, sir.
599
00:39:20,859 --> 00:39:22,190
Fat Sam: All right, yeah.
600
00:39:22,318 --> 00:39:23,921
Charlie:
Hey, bingo, find out what's happenin'.
601
00:39:23,945 --> 00:39:25,130
Walter:
What kind of town is this?
602
00:39:25,154 --> 00:39:26,485
This ain't no ballpark, is it?
603
00:39:27,740 --> 00:39:29,526
Joe: Hey, mr long, is it locked?
604
00:39:29,659 --> 00:39:33,493
- Walter: Where the other team at?
- Bingo: Let's break in.
605
00:39:37,917 --> 00:39:40,829
Hey! Hey!
606
00:39:42,171 --> 00:39:44,483
- What the hell's goin' on around here?
- There's no game today.
607
00:39:44,507 --> 00:39:45,838
What you talkin' about, no game?
608
00:39:45,967 --> 00:39:48,379
This is Sunday the 24th.
This is the town of jeffersonville.
609
00:39:48,511 --> 00:39:50,627
We the all-stars.
So where are the Roman gladiolus?
610
00:39:50,763 --> 00:39:52,094
They ain't here.
611
00:39:52,223 --> 00:39:55,135
The game been cancelled,
on... on account of rain.
612
00:39:55,268 --> 00:39:57,725
Bingo:
Rain? What rain? It ain't even moist.
613
00:39:57,854 --> 00:40:01,187
I can tell you fellas,
you ain't from around these parts
614
00:40:01,316 --> 00:40:03,156
because we got some
fickle weather around here.
615
00:40:03,276 --> 00:40:06,439
Oh, just any minute
could be a rip snorter.
616
00:40:06,571 --> 00:40:09,233
Yeah, I heard this was
Tor... tornado country.
617
00:40:09,365 --> 00:40:10,855
Yeah, yeah.
618
00:40:13,828 --> 00:40:16,069
- The hell with the gladiolus.
- Fat Sam: Yeah...
619
00:40:16,205 --> 00:40:18,036
There's a game in every town.
C'mon.
620
00:40:18,166 --> 00:40:19,518
Isaac:
I don't know, bingo. I don't know.
621
00:40:19,542 --> 00:40:21,061
- You smell a rat, huh?
- Isaac: Damn right.
622
00:40:21,085 --> 00:40:23,326
Leon:
We better send a couple of telegrams.
623
00:40:27,592 --> 00:40:32,256
Okay. Well... well, I guess...
I guess that's that.
624
00:40:32,388 --> 00:40:35,300
Just, er... just like I said.
It wasn't no problem.
625
00:40:35,433 --> 00:40:38,300
I'm always glad to help...
Help when I can.
626
00:40:38,436 --> 00:40:40,316
Yeah, we seen
you gone through a little trouble,
627
00:40:40,396 --> 00:40:43,479
so here's a little somethin'
to help cover your expenses.
628
00:40:43,608 --> 00:40:45,269
Will that be satisfactory?
629
00:40:45,401 --> 00:40:48,734
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Yes, sir. Oh, my. Oh, yeah.
630
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,981
- Thank you. H-h-h-hurry back.
- Be seein' ya.
631
00:41:06,381 --> 00:41:07,791
Fat Sam:
Bring me a whole watermelon
632
00:41:07,924 --> 00:41:09,693
- without the seeds.
- Charlie: I can't bring all that.
633
00:41:09,717 --> 00:41:10,819
Champ: What you want, rainbow?
634
00:41:10,843 --> 00:41:12,446
Leon:
The only bookers that bothered to answer
635
00:41:12,470 --> 00:41:13,960
said, "no, thank you".
636
00:41:15,181 --> 00:41:18,218
Oh, we too good, Leon.
They just scared to take us on, that's all.
637
00:41:18,351 --> 00:41:22,264
Leon: Only one thing gonna scare a booker
away from makin' money, and it ain't us.
638
00:41:22,397 --> 00:41:24,353
The masters is fightin' back.
639
00:41:24,482 --> 00:41:29,146
If the lord done decided
to end this team, his will be done.
640
00:41:29,278 --> 00:41:31,690
Oh, sallie Potter ain't the lord!
641
00:41:31,823 --> 00:41:34,823
I'm a thousand miles from st Louis
and that man still tellin' me what to do.
642
00:41:34,867 --> 00:41:36,858
Charlie:
Okay, amigos. It's quitting time.
643
00:41:39,414 --> 00:41:40,904
Champ: Can't argue with that.
644
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:43,477
I keep tellin' you boys,
the white leagues is the only answer.
645
00:41:43,501 --> 00:41:45,492
- Charlie, you're right!
- I'm right?
646
00:41:45,628 --> 00:41:48,228
What, are you gonna pass for white?
King Kong got a better chance.
647
00:41:48,339 --> 00:41:51,672
Looky here. Us coloured folks
is a minority in this country, right?
648
00:41:51,801 --> 00:41:54,964
Well, then it seem to me
that we barnstormers in a volume business.
649
00:41:55,096 --> 00:41:56,836
Ain't that clear?
“Ain't what clear?
650
00:41:56,973 --> 00:41:58,713
Look, Tarzan.
651
00:41:58,850 --> 00:42:02,342
Over what don't sallie Potter
have no control?
652
00:42:02,478 --> 00:42:06,437
What do we never run out of
in this country?
653
00:42:06,566 --> 00:42:08,147
White folks!
654
00:43:21,182 --> 00:43:23,173
Umpire: Play ball!
655
00:43:26,312 --> 00:43:28,192
- C'mon, now. Let's go, guys.
- Let's play ball.
656
00:43:28,272 --> 00:43:30,638
Let's go now, let's play.
657
00:43:34,946 --> 00:43:37,483
Man in crowd:
Oh, lucky shot. Lucky shot!
658
00:43:38,407 --> 00:43:39,487
Umpire: Safel
659
00:43:49,460 --> 00:43:50,870
Get in there. Sit down.
660
00:43:51,003 --> 00:43:52,773
We're here to play ball.
We don't have to take this.
661
00:43:52,797 --> 00:43:56,039
- That's all right, go sit down. Take it easy.
- They's supposed to treat us nice.
662
00:43:56,175 --> 00:43:58,416
- Them niggers think they're hot stuff.
- Yeah, right.
663
00:43:58,553 --> 00:44:02,045
Okay, let's go.
Oh, here comes fat boy now.
664
00:44:02,181 --> 00:44:04,012
Hey, watch it there, batter.
665
00:44:04,142 --> 00:44:07,134
Look at them knees knockin'.
666
00:44:08,271 --> 00:44:09,932
Let's go. Come on.
667
00:44:15,862 --> 00:44:18,228
Make your turn. Make your turn.
668
00:44:18,364 --> 00:44:20,355
Wait now.
669
00:44:20,491 --> 00:44:22,231
No! No!
670
00:44:28,958 --> 00:44:30,539
Get back. It's just a ball game.
671
00:44:30,668 --> 00:44:33,330
What's you talkin' about, man?
That ain't right.
672
00:44:33,462 --> 00:44:34,952
Umpire: Batter up. Play ball.
673
00:44:36,382 --> 00:44:37,997
What the hell you lookin' at, nigger?
674
00:44:41,095 --> 00:44:43,031
Better than limpin' back
to sallie Potter though, eh?
675
00:44:43,055 --> 00:44:45,091
I don't know.
Sallie might be mean and cheap,
676
00:44:45,224 --> 00:44:47,681
but as far as I know,
he ain't never got nobody lynched.
677
00:44:49,353 --> 00:44:52,766
You're a bunch of bums!
Kill 'em! Kill 'em!
678
00:44:54,442 --> 00:44:56,023
Umpire: Get a batter up here.
679
00:44:56,152 --> 00:44:58,152
Hey, let's get this batter now.
Let's go, let's go.
680
00:44:58,279 --> 00:44:59,610
Don't let him hit one out there.
681
00:44:59,739 --> 00:45:02,401
Watch me now.
I might steal somethin'.
682
00:45:02,533 --> 00:45:05,275
- Catcher: We got this guy.
- Umpire: Ball one.
683
00:45:05,411 --> 00:45:07,902
You gotta slide. Slide!
684
00:45:08,039 --> 00:45:09,575
Umpire: Safel
685
00:45:09,707 --> 00:45:12,540
out! Out!
686
00:45:15,421 --> 00:45:16,501
Umpire: Time!
687
00:45:22,595 --> 00:45:25,007
The guy on second's got a razor!
688
00:45:37,276 --> 00:45:38,795
Hit a home run,
I'll buy ya some popcorn.
689
00:45:38,819 --> 00:45:39,934
Catcher: Here it comes.
690
00:45:40,696 --> 00:45:41,936
Whoa!
691
00:45:47,828 --> 00:45:49,910
Oh, no, bingo.
Not me. It ain't manly.
692
00:45:50,039 --> 00:45:52,621
What difference does it make, Leon?
We gonna win anyway.
693
00:45:52,750 --> 00:45:54,019
Now, you pokes another homer out here,
694
00:45:54,043 --> 00:45:55,812
them okies are liable
to get the tar and feathers.
695
00:45:55,836 --> 00:45:57,996
I ain't gonna shine for no white folks
and that's that.
696
00:45:58,047 --> 00:46:02,290
You only gotta pretend. They won't know
we pretendin', so we's one up on 'em.
697
00:46:02,969 --> 00:46:05,130
Umpire:
C'mon. Get a batter up here.
698
00:46:17,608 --> 00:46:19,018
Umpire: Strike hard!
699
00:46:19,151 --> 00:46:21,938
Boys, how 'bout selling me
one of those torpedoes?
700
00:46:22,071 --> 00:46:27,156
All right, hold it, everybody.
Relief pitcher comin' in.
701
00:46:28,911 --> 00:46:31,511
Get the hell outta there, bingo.
I told you I ain't playin' along.
702
00:46:31,622 --> 00:46:33,809
You just afraid I'm gonna whiff you
in front of all these folks.
703
00:46:33,833 --> 00:46:35,018
What the hell you think you're doin'?
704
00:46:35,042 --> 00:46:36,937
I just wanna play a little gag
on my friend over there.
705
00:46:36,961 --> 00:46:39,648
You just give me the ball, and I'll be your
boy for the rest of your life, all right?
706
00:46:39,672 --> 00:46:42,880
- What do you niggers think this is?
- You know how niggers is.
707
00:46:43,009 --> 00:46:47,594
Boy, I'm gonna whack that ball so far
they gotta hop on a train to catch it.
708
00:46:47,722 --> 00:46:52,466
Oh, I warn you, Leon.
This one gonna be a smoker!
709
00:46:58,232 --> 00:47:00,143
Happy fourth of July!
710
00:47:00,276 --> 00:47:06,192
From the bingo long traveling
all-stars & motor kings!
711
00:47:18,419 --> 00:47:19,604
Charlie:
It's the humber of times
712
00:47:19,628 --> 00:47:23,291
you been at bat and been pitched at
divided by the number of times you swing.
713
00:47:23,424 --> 00:47:26,416
See, I swung at the ball
more than I hit.
714
00:47:26,552 --> 00:47:29,134
That wouldn't give me
a good battin' average either.
715
00:47:29,263 --> 00:47:30,583
There's gotta be a way
to do this.
716
00:47:32,183 --> 00:47:34,925
J give 'em a razzle-dazzle smile
717
00:47:36,437 --> 00:47:41,272
j then you can dazzle along with style
718
00:47:42,401 --> 00:47:44,892
j it's a fact there ain't nothin' duller
719
00:47:45,029 --> 00:47:48,021
j than a man who just ain't got colour
720
00:47:48,157 --> 00:47:52,491
j every time the clown comes on,
he steals the show
721
00:47:52,620 --> 00:47:58,035
j if you spend life inside a cage
722
00:47:58,167 --> 00:48:04,163
j I think it's time you found a stage
723
00:48:04,298 --> 00:48:07,882
j just put a joke in the stroke
when you row your boat
724
00:48:08,010 --> 00:48:11,298
j grind your behind
and you'll stay afloat
725
00:48:11,430 --> 00:48:13,512
j if your life has been out of focus
726
00:48:14,308 --> 00:48:17,345
j just give it some hocus pocus
727
00:48:18,229 --> 00:48:23,644
j give 'em a razzle-dazzle spiel
728
00:48:25,194 --> 00:48:30,939
j they're gonna love
the way they feel
729
00:48:32,368 --> 00:48:35,075
j hearts are warm
and the smiles are wider
730
00:48:35,204 --> 00:48:38,162
j anywhere that the lights are brighter
731
00:48:38,290 --> 00:48:46,290
j get razzle dazzle in your...
Razzle, dazzle
732
00:48:48,717 --> 00:48:53,427
j get razzle dazzle in your... &
733
00:48:53,556 --> 00:48:55,763
I got it! I got it!
734
00:49:00,896 --> 00:49:02,165
Bingo:
You know, someday I'll be so old,
735
00:49:02,189 --> 00:49:03,599
my arm will be gone
736
00:49:03,732 --> 00:49:07,441
and that's the day I'm gonna look back
on the old days of barnstormin' and smile.
737
00:49:07,570 --> 00:49:09,936
This is the best thing that could happen
to a ballplayer.
738
00:49:10,072 --> 00:49:13,781
That's right.
Better than being on sallie's plantation.
739
00:49:13,909 --> 00:49:18,573
- Yeah, and the slaves done run off all right.
- Yeah.
740
00:49:22,001 --> 00:49:26,085
You know, in st Louis,
you can't even see the stars at night.
741
00:49:28,549 --> 00:49:32,633
So much for the lockout, sallie.
The all-stars still rollin' along.
742
00:49:32,761 --> 00:49:37,004
The lockout worked perfect.
And the proof is, they playin' white teams.
743
00:49:37,141 --> 00:49:38,472
I call that desperation.
744
00:49:38,601 --> 00:49:42,014
Sallie, you don't know
the meanin' of the word.
745
00:49:42,146 --> 00:49:45,559
No-one wants to see my team play
without champ chambers.
746
00:49:45,691 --> 00:49:48,524
We starvin' down in Atlanta.
747
00:49:48,652 --> 00:49:50,062
And we starvin' in Chicago too!
748
00:49:50,196 --> 00:49:52,938
- But, lady...
- Dumbbell!
749
00:49:53,073 --> 00:49:55,530
You could use a little starvation,
you behemoth!
750
00:49:57,161 --> 00:50:00,904
Fool. That embalmin' fluid
done gone to your brain.
751
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:04,703
Now, gentlemen,
sallie Potter's plan's failed.
752
00:50:04,835 --> 00:50:07,247
And we better book us
some "extradition" games,
753
00:50:07,379 --> 00:50:09,791
- or we all go broke. That's right.
- That's a good idea.
754
00:50:09,924 --> 00:50:12,006
With these night games
they got started...
755
00:50:12,134 --> 00:50:17,470
Looky here! The all-stars ain't got
no owner, and they pay no salaries.
756
00:50:17,598 --> 00:50:20,135
Share the money out equal,
one and all.
757
00:50:20,267 --> 00:50:23,851
We don't wanna book no games
with an operation like that. Huh?
758
00:50:23,979 --> 00:50:26,641
I already got a couple of agents
in the field.
759
00:50:26,774 --> 00:50:31,359
I give 'em the word, they're prepared to
take stronger action against them rebels.
760
00:50:31,487 --> 00:50:34,229
Horace: That's a good idea.
761
00:50:47,378 --> 00:50:50,791
Fat Sam:
Attaboy, bingo. Give 'im that gorilla ball.
762
00:50:50,923 --> 00:50:52,413
He can't hit it.
763
00:50:56,762 --> 00:50:58,343
Fat Sam: Go get it, Joe!
764
00:51:00,683 --> 00:51:03,265
All right, all right,
all right, all right.
765
00:51:14,613 --> 00:51:18,026
Yeah, well, I'm tryin' it, you know?
I gotta run that ball down once in a while.
766
00:51:19,285 --> 00:51:21,116
Hey, fat Sam, wait just a minute.
All right.
767
00:51:21,245 --> 00:51:23,085
- How'd y'all like that game today?
“All: Yeah!
768
00:51:23,205 --> 00:51:24,615
- You like that game?
“All: Yeah!
769
00:51:24,748 --> 00:51:26,989
- What'd you think of that gorilla ball?
“All: Yeah!
770
00:51:27,126 --> 00:51:30,289
Hey, kid, you were terrific. Never seen
a young player do the things you can.
771
00:51:30,421 --> 00:51:32,252
- Thank you, sir.
- What's your name?
772
00:51:32,381 --> 00:51:35,873
- Esquire Joe Calloway.
- Let me have your autograph.
773
00:51:36,010 --> 00:51:37,841
Why, I'd be proud to.
774
00:51:37,970 --> 00:51:39,710
You take this here.
775
00:51:43,892 --> 00:51:47,055
All right, give me your head. I'm gonna
write on top of your head, right there.
776
00:51:50,107 --> 00:51:51,938
Hello there, rainbow.
777
00:51:52,067 --> 00:51:55,559
- Whaddya say?
- He don't say nothin', remember?
778
00:51:56,363 --> 00:51:57,773
Yeah.
779
00:52:00,034 --> 00:52:02,070
How 'bout a cigar, rainbow?
780
00:52:05,039 --> 00:52:08,122
Ain't you gonna offer me
a nice, green cigar, rainbow?
781
00:52:12,963 --> 00:52:16,455
Hell, they be better off
with a watchdog.
782
00:52:26,810 --> 00:52:28,471
Bingo:
Rainbow? Rainbow, who was it?
783
00:52:28,604 --> 00:52:31,937
This dummy lost every penny
back to the owners.
784
00:52:32,066 --> 00:52:35,433
- All right. That cinches it.
- Where you goin'?
785
00:52:36,111 --> 00:52:38,477
Lafferty. I figure that sallie's men
are on their way
786
00:52:38,614 --> 00:52:40,980
to mess up the game
with the star of David team too.
787
00:52:41,116 --> 00:52:44,108
So I'm gonna beat 'em to the punch
and make sure that game is still on.
788
00:52:44,244 --> 00:52:46,155
See ya in Lafferty.
789
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,531
- We be right behind you, Leon.
- Walter: Hold it, bingo.
790
00:52:50,668 --> 00:52:52,659
You ain't paid out the money
for today's game yet.
791
00:52:52,795 --> 00:52:54,731
We in a hurry, Walter.
I'll give it to you in Lafferty.
792
00:52:54,755 --> 00:52:57,838
Considerin' what's happened,
I think we'd like our money now.
793
00:52:57,966 --> 00:52:59,627
All: Yeah, yeah.
794
00:52:59,760 --> 00:53:02,752
All right, all right,
all right, all right.
795
00:53:02,888 --> 00:53:04,324
It boils down
to seven dollars apiece.
796
00:53:04,348 --> 00:53:07,590
What about rainbow here?
Now, I say he cost us heavy today.
797
00:53:07,726 --> 00:53:10,217
Bingo:
It wasn't rainbow's fault.
798
00:53:10,354 --> 00:53:13,208
Sallie could've gotten to any one of us.
Rainbow's been workin' hard for the team.
799
00:53:13,232 --> 00:53:14,972
- He deserves full share.
- That's right.
800
00:53:15,109 --> 00:53:16,440
I don't know.
I don't know, bingo.
801
00:53:16,568 --> 00:53:19,526
I mean, it just seems to me
that ol' tar baby over here,
802
00:53:19,655 --> 00:53:22,738
all he do is hand me my bats,
and Bob his head.
803
00:53:22,866 --> 00:53:24,948
- Willie: You tell it.
- Charlie: Yeah, fat Sam.
804
00:53:28,789 --> 00:53:31,030
Oh, my golly, I done forgot!
805
00:53:31,166 --> 00:53:34,909
I made a deal for half the concession money.
We got another fourteen dollars to split up.
806
00:53:35,045 --> 00:53:37,787
- Them folks was sure hungry today!
- Knew he was holdin' back.
807
00:53:37,923 --> 00:53:41,415
- I'll take it.
- Here's some for rainbow too.
808
00:53:41,552 --> 00:53:45,511
- Walter: All right.
- Bingo: Now let's get movin'. Come on!
809
00:53:47,433 --> 00:53:49,389
Mack:
Did you see the way that boy shook?
810
00:53:49,518 --> 00:53:53,602
Now, let's see now... $163.43!
811
00:53:53,731 --> 00:53:54,971
Whoo-hoo-hoo!
812
00:53:55,107 --> 00:53:56,459
Honey:
Those boys keep that up, boy,
813
00:53:56,483 --> 00:53:57,939
we be in good shape on this trip.
814
00:54:00,779 --> 00:54:02,299
Willie:
Charlie, when are you gonna get
815
00:54:02,406 --> 00:54:05,569
that hunk of junk out of this square?
You're blocking traffic.
816
00:54:06,410 --> 00:54:07,900
Charlie: Hold it.
817
00:54:08,996 --> 00:54:11,908
Policeman:
The Holly arms hotel? Right over there.
818
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:15,532
C'mon. Keep it movin'. C'mon.
819
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:25,251
Fat Sam:
C'mon, everybody. Here we go!
820
00:54:28,849 --> 00:54:30,840
Hey, bingo!
821
00:54:34,646 --> 00:54:37,479
We got our reservations here,
and the game is on.
822
00:54:54,041 --> 00:54:58,626
- Charlie: Yeow! Do it again! Yeow!
- Joe: Yeah!
823
00:54:58,754 --> 00:55:00,961
Charlie:
You've gotta know how to live, my friend.
824
00:55:01,089 --> 00:55:03,501
You seen, you drink this down,
it put lead in your pencil.
825
00:55:03,634 --> 00:55:05,465
- This here the eraser.
- This is the eraser.
826
00:55:05,594 --> 00:55:06,674
- Yes, sir.
- Yes, sir.
827
00:55:06,804 --> 00:55:09,295
You gotta get a good stance now.
Come on. Hold on.
828
00:55:09,431 --> 00:55:11,592
- Put it to your lips very easy.
- To your lips.
829
00:55:11,725 --> 00:55:13,215
And you drink.
830
00:55:17,648 --> 00:55:20,980
Wow!
831
00:55:21,109 --> 00:55:23,771
Not very smooth, but once it down,
you don't feel a thing, eh?
832
00:55:23,904 --> 00:55:25,735
I don't feel nothin' now.
833
00:55:27,115 --> 00:55:28,525
Woo!
834
00:55:33,038 --> 00:55:34,994
See, I know you like it.
835
00:55:35,123 --> 00:55:37,034
Hey, girlie! Two bourbon.
836
00:55:37,167 --> 00:55:40,125
No, cancel that.
We in training, Leon.
837
00:55:40,254 --> 00:55:41,334
No bourbon.
838
00:55:41,463 --> 00:55:44,400
How do you expect to play your best game
if you gonna get drunk the night before?
839
00:55:44,424 --> 00:55:47,587
Shit! I hits better
when I can see more than one ball.
840
00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:51,052
- Why ain't you drinkin'?
- I can't, man, I ain't got no money.
841
00:55:51,181 --> 00:55:54,924
No money? There was a lot of folks
watchin' you pitch that gorilla ball.
842
00:55:55,060 --> 00:55:58,723
I know, I know, I know,
but you see, it's like this, Leon.
843
00:55:59,606 --> 00:56:02,406
I had to pass out my cut to the boys
and tell 'em it was popcorn money.
844
00:56:02,484 --> 00:56:05,897
I mean, they was turnin' on rainbow.
845
00:56:07,447 --> 00:56:10,280
- Murchman again?
- That son of a bitch.
846
00:56:11,201 --> 00:56:14,864
Bingo, I'm really proud of you, man.
847
00:56:14,997 --> 00:56:17,158
I'm proud to be your teammate
and your friend
848
00:56:17,291 --> 00:56:19,782
cos you settin' an example
of brotherhood among athletes
849
00:56:19,918 --> 00:56:21,749
that'll go down in history.
850
00:56:22,337 --> 00:56:25,500
In history, bingo.
I loves you, and I'm truly proud of you.
851
00:56:28,010 --> 00:56:31,002
- I's proud of you too, Leon.
- Why is that?
852
00:56:31,138 --> 00:56:32,799
Cos I gave 'em your share too.
853
00:56:37,394 --> 00:56:40,602
Well, I guess we better make
this one shot of bourbon go all night, huh?
854
00:56:48,822 --> 00:56:51,814
Well, at least
it don't cost nothin' to scuffle.
855
00:56:51,950 --> 00:56:55,534
Hey, girlie! Somebody close the window
and let it get hotter!
856
00:56:55,662 --> 00:56:57,243
Bingo: Boogie-woogie.
857
00:57:01,793 --> 00:57:03,033
Leon!
858
00:57:08,383 --> 00:57:11,375
If you think I done you wrong,
you can have my share tomorrow.
859
00:57:12,888 --> 00:57:17,222
Hey, man, you got to get rid
of that solemn look.
860
00:57:37,454 --> 00:57:41,117
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay,
ay, ay, ay, ay.
861
00:57:41,249 --> 00:57:42,910
Do you see that?
862
00:57:43,043 --> 00:57:45,876
Ain't no women like that
down in sternville.
863
00:57:46,004 --> 00:57:48,245
If there ain't,
you must've had a very sad childhood.
864
00:57:48,382 --> 00:57:49,542
I played ball a lot.
865
00:57:49,675 --> 00:57:50,835
- You did?
- Yes, sir.
866
00:57:50,968 --> 00:57:54,051
- I'm gonna show you how a pro does it.
- You mean, you gonna go over there?
867
00:57:54,179 --> 00:57:57,342
Sure. You think I'm afraid cos she's white?
That don't scare Carlos Nevada.
868
00:57:57,474 --> 00:57:58,884
- No, sir.
- I have an approach.
869
00:57:59,017 --> 00:58:00,757
- You got an approach?
- A technique.
870
00:58:00,894 --> 00:58:02,334
She looked this way.
Did you see her?
871
00:58:02,437 --> 00:58:05,019
Bartender, two more.
Landale, andale! Jpronto!
872
00:58:05,148 --> 00:58:07,085
- You see, blondes like my type of man.
- They do?
873
00:58:07,109 --> 00:58:09,691
- Tall, dark and handsome.
- You sure is that!
874
00:58:11,697 --> 00:58:14,439
Yeah, she can tell
I've got experience.
875
00:58:15,283 --> 00:58:17,114
Say "hey" for me.
876
00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:39,262
What's on your mind, smoke?
877
00:58:42,269 --> 00:58:46,854
Buenos knockers, senora.
Can I buy you a drink?
878
00:58:48,025 --> 00:58:50,016
Don't you know the rules
around here, Sonny?
879
00:58:50,569 --> 00:58:53,652
Oh, you think I'm coloured!
I'm not coloured. I'm Cuban!
880
00:58:53,780 --> 00:58:56,442
Carlos Nevada,
a very famous Cuban baseball player.
881
00:58:56,575 --> 00:59:00,614
- On my way to being El big time.
- Cuban, eh?
882
00:59:00,746 --> 00:59:02,987
You coloured, you know,
you slay me.
883
00:59:03,123 --> 00:59:05,330
It's the way you all talk.
I don't know.
884
00:59:05,459 --> 00:59:08,292
It's the way we talk?
How 'bout five dollars?
885
00:59:11,757 --> 00:59:13,497
Five dollars?
886
00:59:14,009 --> 00:59:16,000
How'd you get so funny?
887
00:59:17,054 --> 00:59:18,885
How 'bout seven fifty?
888
00:59:21,516 --> 00:59:24,349
Well, listen, black beauty,
I'll tell you what.
889
00:59:24,478 --> 00:59:28,721
We'll go up to my room.
We'll negotiate.
890
00:59:28,857 --> 00:59:32,600
We go up to your room, we negotiate.
Think you're kiddin' somebody?
891
00:59:32,736 --> 00:59:35,478
- Come on.
- Come on? That's it?
892
00:59:35,614 --> 00:59:40,859
Up to her room by myself alone?
I'm not even Carlos Nevada.
893
01:00:05,977 --> 01:00:09,140
You're fabulous.
Carlos goin' to give you ten dollars.
894
01:00:09,272 --> 01:00:10,792
- You don't tell nobody, okay?
- Okay. Okay.
895
01:00:10,816 --> 01:00:13,148
- It's American money. Very good.
- Yeah, yeah.
896
01:00:15,487 --> 01:00:17,978
Perfume. Fantastic!
897
01:00:18,907 --> 01:00:21,899
If you're a ballplayer, honey,
why don't you slide on home to mama?
898
01:00:22,035 --> 01:00:23,525
I'm getting my bat ready.
899
01:00:24,746 --> 01:00:27,738
Oh, my god! It's nothing.
In my country everybody has one.
900
01:00:30,252 --> 01:00:31,708
I love a woman who can laugh.
901
01:00:32,212 --> 01:00:36,125
How nice to be in this country.
You don't know how I feel.
902
01:00:36,258 --> 01:00:39,546
It reminds me
of when I was a kid in Montevideo.
903
01:00:41,429 --> 01:00:42,509
Beat it, lady!
904
01:00:42,639 --> 01:00:45,221
He made me do it!
It wasn't my idea, I swear!
905
01:00:45,350 --> 01:00:48,433
She made me do it!
It wasn't my idea, I swear!
906
01:01:05,287 --> 01:01:07,403
Make them get out of here!
907
01:01:10,333 --> 01:01:11,743
Bingo!
908
01:01:13,044 --> 01:01:14,454
Leon!
909
01:01:20,427 --> 01:01:22,418
Oh, shit!
910
01:01:27,809 --> 01:01:29,219
Shh-shh-shh!
911
01:01:29,352 --> 01:01:33,516
Please, please. Just drop me off
at the baseball park. Okay?
912
01:01:34,983 --> 01:01:38,646
Thank you very much.
I'm sorry, I don't have money for a tip.
913
01:01:43,283 --> 01:01:45,524
Lox, cream cheese, bagels.
914
01:01:45,660 --> 01:01:47,992
Cracker Jacks, popcorn,
everything!
915
01:01:50,498 --> 01:01:51,908
Umpire: Play!
916
01:01:58,423 --> 01:02:01,005
Strike three and you're out.
917
01:02:05,805 --> 01:02:07,565
What happened
to your battin' eye, mr Nevada?
918
01:02:07,682 --> 01:02:10,264
I left it last night
with 100 pounds of white meat.
919
01:02:10,393 --> 01:02:12,384
And now I must go
make poo-poo caca.
920
01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:14,932
J la poo-poo caca,
la poo-poo caca j
921
01:02:22,113 --> 01:02:24,195
Hey, fella, back of the line.
922
01:02:37,254 --> 01:02:38,289
Umpire: Safel
923
01:02:51,226 --> 01:02:53,057
J caca poo-poo j&
924
01:03:03,154 --> 01:03:04,394
Hi!
925
01:03:06,700 --> 01:03:10,534
- Not this time, Charlie.
- Oooh!
926
01:03:16,710 --> 01:03:20,453
Got a little somethin' for ya, Charlie.
927
01:03:20,588 --> 01:03:22,829
- Can I ask a question?
- Yeah.
928
01:03:22,966 --> 01:03:26,049
If ya cut me,
who's gonna play right field?
929
01:03:28,430 --> 01:03:29,840
Oh, shit.
930
01:03:39,941 --> 01:03:41,932
Why are you shakin', Charlie?
931
01:03:42,068 --> 01:03:45,185
Your team's gonna win
if Leon catch hold of one.
932
01:03:45,322 --> 01:03:47,028
Wait for the crowd to roar.
933
01:03:53,163 --> 01:03:54,744
Umpire: Ball one!
934
01:04:13,099 --> 01:04:14,930
Now!
935
01:04:38,958 --> 01:04:40,539
Bingo...
936
01:04:45,340 --> 01:04:47,080
Leon: Get a blanket.
937
01:04:58,311 --> 01:04:59,972
Er... excuse me, ma'am.
How's he doin'?
938
01:05:00,105 --> 01:05:02,346
The doctor says some more surgery
will be necessary.
939
01:05:02,482 --> 01:05:05,974
I guess a few more cuts won't matter.
Did he say anything before he passed out?
940
01:05:06,111 --> 01:05:08,693
He babbled a lot.
He kept calling for his girlfriend.
941
01:05:08,822 --> 01:05:11,063
Which one? He's got more
than anybody in the league.
942
01:05:11,199 --> 01:05:14,362
I think the name was Sally.
Yeah, that's right, Sally potts.
943
01:05:14,494 --> 01:05:16,735
He kept asking for her.
944
01:05:16,871 --> 01:05:20,534
Sally potts.
945
01:05:22,293 --> 01:05:24,033
Sallie Potter.
946
01:05:24,170 --> 01:05:26,661
This is for your whole blood
and drugs. Sulphur.
947
01:05:26,798 --> 01:05:31,713
It's very expensive. Then his doctor fees,
anaesthesia and surgery.
948
01:05:31,845 --> 01:05:34,507
And dr McCarthy has found a dose of...
949
01:05:36,683 --> 01:05:40,050
You know what, and of course
we have to clean that out.
950
01:05:40,186 --> 01:05:42,427
Excuse me, ma'am,
but I should tell you right off
951
01:05:42,564 --> 01:05:47,649
that we only got $225.
952
01:05:47,777 --> 01:05:50,109
And that's from last night's game.
We don't got no other.
953
01:05:50,238 --> 01:05:54,277
I suppose you know that
he has been hurt far worse than $225.
954
01:05:54,409 --> 01:05:57,071
But we'll take what we can get.
955
01:06:03,460 --> 01:06:07,703
He likes ice cream.
Vanilla, if you've got some.
956
01:06:07,839 --> 01:06:10,672
Right, vanilla.
957
01:06:13,011 --> 01:06:14,530
If sallie gonna pull that kind of stuff,
958
01:06:14,554 --> 01:06:16,490
we're gonna have a hard time
keepin' the team together.
959
01:06:16,514 --> 01:06:18,114
No, no, no,
it wasn't sallie who done it.
960
01:06:18,183 --> 01:06:20,423
Charlie said it was two boys
from the red feather lounge,
961
01:06:20,477 --> 01:06:23,059
on account of his foolin' around
with the white meat.
962
01:06:24,481 --> 01:06:25,561
Oh, yeah?
963
01:06:25,690 --> 01:06:29,274
I always knew that boy's Aryan proclivities
would get his nuts in a cooker.
964
01:06:29,402 --> 01:06:31,213
Talkin" about that,
how we gonna pay for that hotel?
965
01:06:31,237 --> 01:06:34,729
- How is he?
- He's okay. He's all right.
966
01:06:58,681 --> 01:07:00,888
You gentlemen checking out?
967
01:07:02,644 --> 01:07:05,306
Inasmuch as I was present
at last night's contest
968
01:07:05,438 --> 01:07:08,225
and knew you were staying
at my hotel,
969
01:07:08,358 --> 01:07:11,441
I took the Liberty of securing
the cost of your stay.
970
01:07:12,529 --> 01:07:15,612
We was countin' on your kindness
and understandin', mr bostrum,
971
01:07:15,740 --> 01:07:19,733
to see us through our misfortune
cos we done fell on hard times,
972
01:07:19,869 --> 01:07:24,078
and we knew that a freethinkin'
gentleman such as yourself
973
01:07:24,207 --> 01:07:26,198
would help us get back
on our feet.
974
01:07:26,334 --> 01:07:30,247
What makes you think you niggers
can lay your losses off on me?
975
01:07:30,380 --> 01:07:33,793
It's blackbird trash like you
that's holding the coloured people back.
976
01:07:33,925 --> 01:07:35,961
Man: Okay.
977
01:07:36,094 --> 01:07:38,050
Wheel it out. Come on.
978
01:07:38,179 --> 01:07:40,170
Where are they takin' my car?
979
01:07:40,306 --> 01:07:44,515
It will be sold at public auction
under the supervision of sheriff gleason.
980
01:07:44,644 --> 01:07:47,807
And there's nothing
you can do about it.
981
01:07:53,319 --> 01:07:54,479
Champ: The man got the car.
982
01:07:54,612 --> 01:07:56,398
What are we gonna do now?
983
01:07:56,531 --> 01:07:59,364
- Yeah, bingo, what are we gonna do?
- I'm with you, bingo.
984
01:07:59,492 --> 01:08:00,982
I'm hungry.
985
01:08:02,579 --> 01:08:04,240
I know.
986
01:08:04,372 --> 01:08:07,705
We can go four to a seat, and take turns
standin' on the runnin' board.
987
01:08:07,834 --> 01:08:10,416
Might have to leave
some of the luggage, though.
988
01:08:10,545 --> 01:08:11,955
Uh-huh.
989
01:08:14,882 --> 01:08:16,964
Boy ♪1:
Man, these potatoes is heavy!
990
01:08:17,093 --> 01:08:20,551
Boy ♪2: Well, how else
we s'pose to make money, fool?
991
01:08:29,063 --> 01:08:31,554
They say they gonna pay us
five dollars each.
992
01:08:31,691 --> 01:08:34,854
It oughta go pretty fast
if we get to it.
993
01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:38,861
There you go. That's one.
994
01:08:49,917 --> 01:08:57,210

01:09:21,949 --> 01:09:26,238
I hate this goddamn team.
Forgive me, father divine.
1000
01:09:26,371 --> 01:09:28,908
Damn it, murchman.
Pick them picked potatoes up.
1001
01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:31,122
You pick 'em up. I quit.
1002
01:09:31,250 --> 01:09:35,084
Any man batting .426
got no business swingin' a rake.
1003
01:09:35,213 --> 01:09:36,328
Where you goin'?
1004
01:09:36,464 --> 01:09:39,456
I'm gonna get me a cold lemonade
in st Louis.
1005
01:09:39,592 --> 01:09:42,083
- Hey, murch, wait for me.
- Hey, Sam.
1006
01:09:42,220 --> 01:09:45,178
Look out.
I got four kids to worry about.
1007
01:09:45,306 --> 01:09:48,093
You got five, Sam, but that
ain't the point. We're a team.
1008
01:09:48,226 --> 01:09:49,306
You can't leave.
1009
01:09:49,435 --> 01:09:53,849
I'm sorry, bingo, but if I want potatoes,
I'll buy 'em at the damn store.
1010
01:09:54,524 --> 01:09:56,856
Go ahead, then! Take off!
1011
01:09:56,984 --> 01:10:01,648
We don't need no quitters. There's plenty
of players who'd die to play on this club.
1012
01:10:01,781 --> 01:10:03,521
Ain't that right, men?
1013
01:10:07,328 --> 01:10:09,569
You goin' to st Louis?

the rest of y'all get no funny ideas

01:10:14,210 --> 01:10:16,121

01:10:16,254 --> 01:10:20,247
We's a team on the baseball field,
and we's a team on the potato field.
1017
01:10:20,383 --> 01:10:22,044
Right! Boy: Right!

What five dollars?
You picked twenty-four bushels.
1030
01:11:05,303 --> 01:11:07,263
Everybody I talked to
told me it was five dollars.
1031
01:11:07,388 --> 01:11:10,551
It is five dollars the long ton.
Next man.

Who'll start the biddin' off on this
beauty? A brand-new, fresh paint job...
1049
01:12:41,649 --> 01:12:45,483
I was stupid to bring you out here
in the first place.
1050
01:12:45,611 --> 01:12:48,023
You gobbled up a full share
every day on payday.
1051
01:12:48,155 --> 01:12:51,318
And what did you do to earn it?
Nothin"
1052
01:12:51,450 --> 01:12:56,444
couldn't have been more useless if that
fast ball had've tore off your whole head.
1053
01:13:01,127 --> 01:13:03,118
Hungry? Had enough to eat?
1054
01:13:07,300 --> 01:13:09,541
Let me have one of those sandwiches.
1055
01:13:11,971 --> 01:13:14,053
Here. It's a long trip.
1056
01:13:17,268 --> 01:13:20,180
If you need anything, just write it down
and show it to the bus driver.
1057
01:13:20,313 --> 01:13:21,723
He'll know what to do.
1058
01:13:21,856 --> 01:13:25,019
And don't go pokin' your nose
into no pinochle games, you hear?
1059
01:13:28,863 --> 01:13:31,275
Where'd that Leon go to?
1060
01:13:33,451 --> 01:13:35,032
Damn it, I wish you could talk!
1061
01:13:35,161 --> 01:13:38,403
Maybe you could tell me how we fouled up.
I sure as hell don't know.
1062
01:13:38,539 --> 01:13:41,622
- If fair and square don't work, what do?
- Okay, there you go.
1063
01:13:41,751 --> 01:13:45,164
There's a change up in Chicago
for Raleigh.
1064
01:13:46,130 --> 01:13:49,122
You leave them girls alone now, hear?
1065
01:14:04,440 --> 01:14:06,351
So long, rainbow.
1066
01:14:31,175 --> 01:14:32,665
I'm sorry.
1067
01:14:59,495 --> 01:15:04,660
Bingo, we got our backs
up against the wall, no place to go.
1068
01:15:05,334 --> 01:15:09,168
What do you say we get back in the car
and go on back where we come from?
1069
01:15:09,296 --> 01:15:11,036
It's all over, man.
1070
01:15:12,258 --> 01:15:14,089
I guess you're right, Leon.
1071
01:15:20,099 --> 01:15:22,202
Listen, how 'bout I meet y'all back here
'bout a half hour?
1072

01:15:25,813 --> 01:15:28,225
Here, have somethin' to eat on me.
1074
01:15:31,068 --> 01:15:32,808
Leon: Where're you goin'?
1075
01:15:34,071 --> 01:15:37,655

Corliss:
Let's have some change out of there.

01:15:52,590 --> 01:15:55,206
Here you go. You callin'?
All right, we're all in.

Okay. Big king, big ten,

01:15:59,722 --> 01:16:02,805
I'll bet a half. It'll cost you
seventy-five cents to stay, Lars.
1081
01:16:11,692 --> 01:16:13,182
Lars:
Let's see what you got there.
1082

Corliss:
What's goin' on out there?
1085
01:16:43,474 --> 01:16:46,466
Lars:
You've just got coons in your garbage.
1086
01:17:11,335 --> 01:17:12,335

Oh... I was gonna tell you, Leon.
Honest I was.
1131
01:21:08,155 --> 01:21:10,008
But, bein' the leader,
I gotta keep this team together.
1132
01:21:10,032 --> 01:21:14,150
You know... and you get
real ornery sometimes.
1133
01:21:14,870 --> 01:21:18,033
Jack Benny on radio:
Rochester? Gee, that's a peculiar name.
1134
01:21:18,165 --> 01:21:20,747
- How did you get that?
- Rochester: I was born in Syracuse.
1135
01:21:54,368 --> 01:21:57,110
Hey, Leon. Look here.
1136
01:21:58,497 --> 01:22:02,490
Hey, buddy, how 'bout a ride?
Hey! Hey!
1137
01:22:02,626 --> 01:22:05,789
I tell you, you really get all riled up,
don't you, Leon?
1138
01:22:05,921 --> 01:22:07,411
Hey!
1139
01:22:09,133 --> 01:22:11,124
Oh, listen.
1140
01:22:11,260 --> 01:22:15,173
If that other car bothers you so much,
why don't you get in this one?
1141
01:22:15,305 --> 01:22:16,908
You oughtn't be walkin' around
on that foot.
1142
01:22:16,932 --> 01:22:19,719
- I ain't goin' your way, bingo.
- What you talkin' 'bout, Leon?
1143
01:22:22,229 --> 01:22:24,707
Now we end up lyin' to each other
and stealin' cars. I done had it.
1144
01:22:24,731 --> 01:22:27,571
You mean you leavin' the all-stars
to go back and play with the masters?
1145
01:22:28,110 --> 01:22:30,271
No, I ain't doin' that neither.
I'm retirin'.
1146
01:22:30,404 --> 01:22:33,737
I don't want to see another baseball the
rest of my life. Nor a bat, nor a glove.
1147
01:22:33,866 --> 01:22:37,029
The great Leon Carter
windin' up a quitter!
1148
01:22:37,161 --> 01:22:39,152
You ain't no better
than Walter murchman.
1149
01:22:40,956 --> 01:22:44,119
- You're rilin' me, loudmouth.
- That ain't all I'm gonna do.
1150
01:22:47,337 --> 01:22:49,077
Oh, man! Get off!
1151
01:22:49,214 --> 01:22:51,796
Bingo!
I ain't startin', you fool!
1152
01:22:57,181 --> 01:22:59,172
Get outta the way, man!
1153
01:23:03,979 --> 01:23:09,224
Oh, man! You is the fool
to end all fools.
1154
01:23:14,114 --> 01:23:17,902
We'll see who the fool is,
you baboon!
1155
01:23:18,494 --> 01:23:19,984
Bingo: Go ahead.
1156
01:23:21,538 --> 01:23:24,325
Hey, can I get a ride?
Thank you, sir.
1157
01:23:24,458 --> 01:23:28,701
Go ahead! All right, go ahead!
1158
01:23:28,837 --> 01:23:34,082
I's overcome with joy.
I don't have to see your ugly face no more.
1159
01:23:34,218 --> 01:23:37,802
Get out!
You're over the hill anyway.
1160
01:23:39,181 --> 01:23:41,843
We'll find somebody
twice as good as you.
1161
01:23:54,905 --> 01:23:56,861
Catcher:
How do you like this here?
1162
01:23:56,990 --> 01:23:59,026
Put it right here.
Ol' boy can't hit nohow.
1163
01:23:59,868 --> 01:24:01,054
Umpire:
Let's do it! Let's do it!
1164
01:24:01,078 --> 01:24:04,070
All right.
How do you like this here?
1165
01:24:04,206 --> 01:24:05,446
How do you like this over here?
1166
01:24:05,582 --> 01:24:07,698
Umpire: Come on. Play ball!
1167
01:24:08,919 --> 01:24:11,501
What about right here?
Right down the centre, baby.
1168
01:24:11,630 --> 01:24:13,040
What'd you say?
All right, come on.
1169
01:24:13,173 --> 01:24:16,290
- Come on. Let's go, baby!
- All right, let's do it. Come on now.
1170
01:24:16,426 --> 01:24:18,257
Get in here!
1171
01:24:27,187 --> 01:24:28,597
Umpire: He's out!
1172
01:24:40,826 --> 01:24:42,066
All-stars.
1173
01:24:45,622 --> 01:24:49,535
Wait a minute!
Hold it, goddamn it. Everybody!
1174
01:24:49,668 --> 01:24:51,579
I didn't come here
for no goddamn brawl.
1175
01:24:51,712 --> 01:24:54,499
- All right, boy, let's talk.
- Do me like you did rainbow.
1176
01:24:54,631 --> 01:24:56,792
Your team's fallin' to pieces, bingo.
1177
01:24:56,925 --> 01:24:58,586
And the owners is willin'
to bail you out.
1178
01:24:58,719 --> 01:25:01,381
We even took care
of that stolen car business for ya.
1179
01:25:01,513 --> 01:25:05,097
Now, we gonna let y'all back in the leagues
on your old teams for the same salary.
1180
01:25:05,225 --> 01:25:08,717
Tell you what. You come back this week,
there'll be a little extra dough in it for you.
1181
01:25:08,854 --> 01:25:11,687
And a bonus for the rest of the boys.
Free funerals.
1182
01:25:11,815 --> 01:25:14,807
You barkin' up the wrong tree, fat man.
1183
01:25:14,943 --> 01:25:18,936
- This team ain't about to fold up.
- All right, bingo. All right.
1184
01:25:19,072 --> 01:25:21,063
Make you another offer.
1185
01:25:21,199 --> 01:25:23,360
Your all-stars against mine.
1186
01:25:23,493 --> 01:25:25,984
One big game down in st Louis.
1187
01:25:26,121 --> 01:25:29,454
People'd pay a pretty penny
to see that one.
1188
01:25:29,583 --> 01:25:32,495
Are you offering us
a guarantee or a percentage?
1189
01:25:32,628 --> 01:25:34,289
Better than that.
You beat my all-stars,
1190
01:25:34,421 --> 01:25:36,412
you can come back in the league
as your own team.
1191
01:25:36,548 --> 01:25:38,288
- Official?
- Official.
1192
01:25:38,425 --> 01:25:40,416
Chance for your boys
to be respectable.
1193
01:25:40,552 --> 01:25:44,044
But if you lose,
you all return to your old teams.
1194
01:25:44,181 --> 01:25:47,924
You play out the rest of this season
and all the next at half salary.
1195
01:25:48,060 --> 01:25:49,470
We got a game?
1196
01:25:50,437 --> 01:25:53,099
Sallie, sallie, sallie.
1197
01:25:54,149 --> 01:25:57,562
You still the same old snake
you always was.
1198
01:25:57,694 --> 01:26:00,936
- Have we got a game?
- Yeah, we got a game.
1199
01:26:01,823 --> 01:26:05,486
And we gonna win, too. Easy.
1200
01:26:06,953 --> 01:26:08,614
We got a game.
1201
01:26:17,172 --> 01:26:18,753
Bingo: Leon, you there?
1202
01:26:24,680 --> 01:26:26,011
Leon!
1203
01:26:26,139 --> 01:26:27,879
Boy: Come on! Hit the ball!
1204
01:26:28,850 --> 01:26:30,761
Leon: Strike two!
1205
01:26:34,022 --> 01:26:35,512
Boy:
You stand there like a dummy.
1206
01:26:35,649 --> 01:26:38,482
C'mon, hit the ball!
C'mon! Hit it!
1207
01:26:38,610 --> 01:26:40,100
Hit it!
1208
01:26:42,698 --> 01:26:45,030
- Out!
- Boy: Man, that was no out.
1209
01:26:45,158 --> 01:26:48,901
What do you mean, that wasn't no out?
You was out by a mile.
1210
01:26:50,163 --> 01:26:52,433
So you don't wanna see another baseball
for the rest of your life,
1211
01:26:52,457 --> 01:26:55,369
- nor a bat, nor a glove, huh?
- What you want here, bingo?
1212
01:26:55,961 --> 01:26:58,703
- You seen this?
- I ain't seen nothin' but.
1213
01:26:58,839 --> 01:27:01,171
That poster must be on every wall
in st Louis.
1214
01:27:01,299 --> 01:27:04,041
This is it, Leon.
A chance to say goodbye to barnstormin',
1215
01:27:04,177 --> 01:27:05,817
and get back in the league
as our own men.
1216
01:27:05,887 --> 01:27:07,377
Equal pay for equal play.
1217
01:27:07,514 --> 01:27:11,223
You still slicin' up that same baloney, but
it's still too hard to swallow. All right!
1218
01:27:11,351 --> 01:27:14,935
I know I shouldn't have lied to you, Leon.
I know I should've never stole that car.
1219
01:27:15,063 --> 01:27:16,303
You know, that's grand larceny.
1220
01:27:16,356 --> 01:27:17,846
- I don't want it no more.
- Strike!
1221
01:27:17,983 --> 01:27:22,226
Look here, I don't want it no more.
Goodbye, packard.
1222
01:27:22,362 --> 01:27:25,024
You must think I'm pretty dumb.
Them the keys to your old Ford.
1223
01:27:25,157 --> 01:27:26,488
Strike two!
1224
01:27:26,616 --> 01:27:28,857
The all-stars can't do it
without you, Leon.
1225
01:27:28,994 --> 01:27:31,914
I'm begging you to come back and help us
whup the owners once and for all.
1226
01:27:32,038 --> 01:27:36,327
- What if we lose?
- Look, if we lose, I'm quitting the game.
1227
01:27:36,460 --> 01:27:37,791
Strike three!
1228
01:27:37,919 --> 01:27:40,752
There's nothin' that can make me
work for sallie again.
1229
01:27:40,881 --> 01:27:43,873
Nothin! Even potatoes is better.
1230
01:27:44,718 --> 01:27:49,803
Leon, you and me. We can't lose.
1231
01:27:51,057 --> 01:27:54,390
All right, all right,
all right, all right! Hey!
1232
01:27:54,519 --> 01:27:58,432
Bingo, I'm enjoyin' my retirement too much
to worry about that old can of beans,
1233
01:27:58,565 --> 01:28:03,650
but I'll tell you, if I change my mind between
now and game time, I might see ya there.
1234
01:28:03,779 --> 01:28:06,987
Yeah! Now you feelin' the spirit!
1235
01:28:07,115 --> 01:28:10,573
Hey! We got some future all-stars out there.
You take care of 'em little boys now.
1236
01:28:10,702 --> 01:28:14,035
And I'll see you at the ballpark, okay?
All right, Leon?
1237
01:28:14,164 --> 01:28:16,246
All right. All right.
1238
01:28:20,128 --> 01:28:21,208
Foul ball!
1239
01:28:30,055 --> 01:28:31,886
Hey, bingo! Yeah?
1240
01:28:32,015 --> 01:28:33,175
Where the hell's Leon?
1241
01:28:33,308 --> 01:28:36,300
Don't worry. He'll be here.
We shook hands on it.
1242
01:28:38,146 --> 01:28:40,307
Hey, fat Sam!
1243
01:28:46,363 --> 01:28:49,526
Hey, bingo! Hey, bingo!
1244
01:28:49,658 --> 01:28:53,822
Get your peanuts, popcorn,
cracker Jacks, hot dogs, cold beer!
1245
01:28:53,954 --> 01:28:58,368
- Rainbow! Hey, rainbow, is that really you?
- Yeah, it's me.
1246
01:28:58,500 --> 01:29:00,912
- Looky there! It's rainbow!
- Popcorn, y'all!
1247
01:29:01,044 --> 01:29:03,456
You're talking! What happened, man?
Tell us what happened.
1248
01:29:03,588 --> 01:29:06,625
I was on that bus to Raleigh.
You told me don't get in no pinochle game.
1249
01:29:06,758 --> 01:29:08,589
- Uh-huh.
- So I played gin rummy instead.
1250
01:29:08,718 --> 01:29:10,800
- Yeah?
- I got into a lot more than I could pay.
1251
01:29:10,929 --> 01:29:12,169
When we got to chattanooga,
1252
01:29:12,305 --> 01:29:14,796
they took me off the bus,
knocked me in my head,
1253
01:29:14,933 --> 01:29:17,424
and when I woke up,
felt my pocket and I knew.
1254
01:29:17,561 --> 01:29:19,497
"Wait a minute, I ain't got no money.
Where my money at?"
1255
01:29:19,521 --> 01:29:21,933
And I said, "help, help!
I been robbed."
1256
01:29:22,065 --> 01:29:23,555
And I been talkin' ever since.
1257
01:29:23,692 --> 01:29:26,855
Okay, that's enough!
I liked you better the old way.
1258
01:29:34,327 --> 01:29:36,067
All right!
1259
01:29:37,747 --> 01:29:40,659
The negro national league
has never seen anything like this.
1260
01:29:40,792 --> 01:29:45,627
The bingo long all-stars take the field
to give us fans a little pre-game show
1261
01:29:45,755 --> 01:29:48,337
in the barnstorming tradition
that made them famous.
1262
01:29:48,466 --> 01:29:51,799
If they win here today,
they'll gain a regular spot in the league,
1263
01:29:51,928 --> 01:29:55,921
a contest unprecedented
in the history of negro ball.
1264
01:30:52,489 --> 01:30:56,232
Sallie Potter, this is the dumbest deal
ever made.
1265
01:30:56,368 --> 01:30:59,326
Now, the league ain't got no room
for no nine teams.
1266
01:30:59,454 --> 01:31:02,571
That's a problem we ain't gonna
have to face, blubberpuss.
1267
01:31:03,750 --> 01:31:08,665
Now, with the new additions to our team,
and the deletions to bingo's,
1268
01:31:08,797 --> 01:31:09,877
the game is in the bag.
1269
01:31:10,006 --> 01:31:13,419
- What if Leon Carter shows up?
- You take it from me.
1270
01:31:13,551 --> 01:31:17,169
Much chance of that
as you wakin' up skinny!
1271
01:31:17,305 --> 01:31:19,659
- What you think happened to Leon?
- Don't worry 'bout it. He'll make it.
1272
01:31:19,683 --> 01:31:21,369
He probably had a late night
rollin' with pearline.
1273
01:31:21,393 --> 01:31:22,803
Mm-hmm.
1274
01:31:24,312 --> 01:31:26,177
Yoo-hoo! Isaac!
1275
01:31:27,524 --> 01:31:29,515
Oh, please, lord!
1276
01:31:30,568 --> 01:31:33,401
Crowd chanting:
Invite pitch! Invite pitch!
1277
01:31:33,530 --> 01:31:36,647
Invite pitch! Invite pitch!
1278
01:31:46,960 --> 01:31:50,123
- Who...
- Crowd: Who...
1279
01:31:50,255 --> 01:31:52,962
- Gonna hit...
- Gonna hit...
1280
01:31:53,091 --> 01:31:56,333
- My...
- My...
1281
01:31:57,178 --> 01:32:01,504
Invite pitch?
1282
01:32:05,603 --> 01:32:07,665
Commentator:
Look at this! Heading up the batting order,
1283
01:32:07,689 --> 01:32:10,772
Walter murchman,
who used to play for the all-stars.
1284
01:32:10,900 --> 01:32:13,642
Story goes he quit in some fight
over working conditions.
1285
01:32:13,778 --> 01:32:16,269
And here he is
to face his former teammates
1286
01:32:16,406 --> 01:32:18,397
and the world-famous invite pitch.
1287
01:32:18,533 --> 01:32:21,445
Hey, bingo,

1288
01:33:03,745 --> 01:33:05,155
Easy.
1289
01:33:08,166 --> 01:33:11,249
The boss knowed you was gonna get
that last-minute itch.
1290
01:33:13,546 --> 01:33:16,379
Oh, sweet Jesus.
1291
01:33:21,763 --> 01:33:22,843
Smart ass!
1292
01:33:24,182 --> 01:33:25,513
I got him.
1293
01:33:26,142 --> 01:33:29,976
C'mon, big fella.
It's all right.
1294
01:33:30,105 --> 01:33:31,345
Sit down.
1295
01:33:31,481 --> 01:33:36,100
Try to relax, mr Carter.
You gonna be here all afternoon.
1296
01:33:37,112 --> 01:33:40,946
Give you somethin'
to listen to, mr Carter.
1297
01:33:41,074 --> 01:33:44,157
Don't get no ideas.
We be right outside.
1298
01:33:45,286 --> 01:33:46,847
Announcer on radio:
And so, ladies and gentlemen,
1299
01:33:46,871 --> 01:33:48,702
no pitch, no runs, no errors
1300
01:33:48,832 --> 01:33:53,041
and the bingo long all-stars
go down one, two, three in the first.
1301
01:33:53,169 --> 01:33:55,160
All right, c'mon, bingo.
1302
01:33:57,590 --> 01:34:00,423
Nice and easy.
All right, c'mon, bingo! Come on now.
1303
01:34:01,594 --> 01:34:02,629
Come to me now.
1304
01:34:02,762 --> 01:34:06,675
Right, here we go now.
Let's go get 'im. Let's go get 'im.
1305
01:34:09,227 --> 01:34:10,307
Go get it, Joe!
1306
01:34:14,023 --> 01:34:15,513
That a baby, Joe!
1307
01:34:16,442 --> 01:34:20,151
- So that's Calloway.
- Yes, sir. And he's only nineteen.
1308
01:34:22,657 --> 01:34:24,147
Hey, honey.
Mack, how's it goin'?
1309
01:34:24,284 --> 01:34:25,945
All right.
What you boys doin' here?
1310
01:34:26,077 --> 01:34:28,910
We come down
for the deceased, mack.
1311
01:34:29,038 --> 01:34:32,371
- Okay, but be quick.
- Okay.
1312
01:34:36,045 --> 01:34:38,627
Commentator: Short stop
who's batting hopeful for the day.
1313
01:34:38,756 --> 01:34:41,418
This year his average
is holding at .204.
1314
01:34:41,551 --> 01:34:44,042
- Bingo looks for the...
- Honey, get in here!
1315
01:34:44,179 --> 01:34:46,261
The ball is hit.
It's a hard grounder.
1316
01:34:46,389 --> 01:34:48,380
Goddamn!
1317
01:34:53,104 --> 01:34:54,560
Bet he's in here.
1318
01:34:54,689 --> 01:34:56,099
The score remains one to nothing.
1319
01:34:56,232 --> 01:34:58,644
That brings the bingo long all-stars
up to bat.
1320
01:34:58,776 --> 01:35:02,018
And, at a time like this, they surely
miss the services of Leon Carter,
1321
01:35:02,155 --> 01:35:03,635
perhaps the league's heaviest hitter.
1322
01:35:04,532 --> 01:35:06,113
I called everybody.
No-one's seen him.
1323
01:35:06,242 --> 01:35:09,905
- Isaac: All right, Sam.
- Well, er... don't worry about it, man.
1324
01:35:10,038 --> 01:35:13,121
He's comin'. He's on his way
to the stadium right this minute.
1325
01:35:13,249 --> 01:35:15,490
He'll have some story to tell,
won't he?
1326
01:35:15,627 --> 01:35:18,314
You know, bingo, it's the last of the
seventh. Now, he ain't showin' up.
1327
01:35:18,338 --> 01:35:21,000
I bet sallie done paid him money
to stay away.
1328
01:35:22,425 --> 01:35:23,425
He said he was comin'.
1329
01:35:23,551 --> 01:35:25,712
He promised me.
He incorruptible.
1330
01:35:25,845 --> 01:35:28,449
Leon never let nobody down,
and I don't want that thought in your mind.
1331
01:35:28,473 --> 01:35:32,933
- Mr long, let 'im go!
- Turn me loose, Louis!
1332
01:35:33,061 --> 01:35:34,926
- C'mon, Sam! C'mon!
- Go, Sam!
1333
01:35:35,772 --> 01:35:38,809
Umpire:
Strike three, and you're out!
1334
01:35:39,817 --> 01:35:41,603
Commentator
after seven-and-one-half innings,
1335
01:35:41,694 --> 01:35:42,979
it's the negro league two,
1336
01:35:43,071 --> 01:35:44,857
the bingo long all-stars nothing.
1337
01:35:44,989 --> 01:35:48,322
Come on out, mr Carter.
Hide-and-seek is over.
1338
01:35:50,995 --> 01:35:53,577
- We mourn this wonderful lady.
- Congregation: Yeah.
1339
01:35:53,706 --> 01:35:56,869
- Her spirit moves through this room.
- Congregation: Yeah.
1340
01:35:57,001 --> 01:35:58,721
At this very minute.
1341
01:36:07,053 --> 01:36:10,045
Come on, boy.
I ain't no Charlie snow.
1342
01:36:27,532 --> 01:36:29,022
Wait!
1343
01:36:29,575 --> 01:36:32,317
The negro league all-stars
have reached bingo long for ten hits now.
1344
01:36:32,453 --> 01:36:34,535
The fire seems to have gone out
of his fastball.
1345
01:36:34,664 --> 01:36:35,824
Walter: What happened?
1346
01:36:35,957 --> 01:36:38,164
Lose your arm pitchin' potatoes?
1347
01:36:38,293 --> 01:36:39,999
Bingo:
Who's that? Walt murchman again?
1348
01:36:40,128 --> 01:36:42,928
Commentator: Bingo long is in real trouble.
Top of the ninth, two outs.
1349
01:36:42,964 --> 01:36:45,751
And the bases are loaded with
the negro league power hitter up to bat.
1350
01:36:45,883 --> 01:36:49,626
If he connects, it could be all over
for the bingo long all-stars.
1351
01:36:52,140 --> 01:36:54,131
They say you a pretty fair hitter.
1352
01:36:54,642 --> 01:36:56,553
So they says!
1353
01:36:56,686 --> 01:36:58,347
Well, hit this.
1354
01:36:58,896 --> 01:37:01,103
Umpire: Strike!
1355
01:37:06,904 --> 01:37:08,394
I love it!
1356
01:37:23,838 --> 01:37:25,920
Commentator:
There goes the wallop! It's a long ball!
1357
01:37:26,049 --> 01:37:28,085
It's going, going...
1358
01:37:28,259 --> 01:37:29,465
Foul!
1359
01:37:29,635 --> 01:37:31,842
Foul ball.
Out by a few, short feet.
1360
01:37:31,971 --> 01:37:34,428
Bingo long seems to have lost his stuff.
1361
01:37:34,557 --> 01:37:36,593
Woman: Get him outta there!
1362
01:37:36,726 --> 01:37:39,163
Commentator the catcher's running out to
the mound. This may be the last we see
1363
01:37:39,187 --> 01:37:41,519
of this exhausted pitcher today.
1364
01:37:41,647 --> 01:37:44,309
Don't worry, Isaac. Don't worry.
He just caught a lucky one.
1365
01:37:44,442 --> 01:37:46,933
Bingo, your arm's goin' out.
I'm comin' in to relieve you.
1366
01:37:47,070 --> 01:37:49,173
You tryin' to tell me my vanish ball
won't go right by him?
1367
01:37:49,197 --> 01:37:51,557
Your vanish ball disappeared
the middle of the fifth innin'.
1368
01:37:53,201 --> 01:37:55,613
It's so fast, it burned the atoms
off the leather.
1369
01:37:55,745 --> 01:37:57,235
It attained the speed of light.
1370
01:37:57,372 --> 01:37:59,363
It tend to disappear
when approachin' the plate!
1371
01:37:59,499 --> 01:38:03,913
Okay. But if you don't get him out
this time, I'm comin' in.
1372
01:38:05,588 --> 01:38:08,295
Oh, lord, I can feel
that woman's flab already.
1373
01:38:11,344 --> 01:38:14,586
Now, here we go, bingo.
Magic time, baby. Magic time.
1374
01:38:14,722 --> 01:38:17,338
Me and you now.
Me and you, bingo.
1375
01:38:24,899 --> 01:38:27,561
Commentator: Bingo's calling in
the outfield. I don't believe it!
1376
01:38:27,693 --> 01:38:31,902
A full count, and bases loaded,
and he's calling in his team.
1377
01:38:32,031 --> 01:38:33,634
Bingo long is wagering
the future of his team
1378
01:38:33,658 --> 01:38:36,946
on this one,
this one single, solitary pitch.
1379
01:38:37,078 --> 01:38:39,694
Come on, bingo.
Let's sink this. It's all right, bingo!
1380
01:38:39,831 --> 01:38:42,823
- I'm with ya, baby.

01:38:42,959 --> 01:38:44,699
Come on, bingo. Let's go!

Old fat Sam will bail you out
if it come down this way.

01:38:47,713 --> 01:38:50,455
Hey, come on, bingo!
You can get him!
1384
01:38:50,591 --> 01:38:52,502
Hey, be tough!
Be tough, bingo! Come on!
1385
01:38:52,635 --> 01:38:53,875
Here we go!
1386
01:39:20,621 --> 01:39:22,577
Out!
1387
01:39:22,707 --> 01:39:25,699
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
1388
01:39:35,344 --> 01:39:36,754
Louis: Way to go, bingo!
1389
01:39:36,888 --> 01:39:39,379
We needed them insurance runs, sallie.
1390
01:39:39,515 --> 01:39:43,884
The game is over. The rebels 'bout
to breathe their last gasp.
1391
01:39:47,857 --> 01:39:50,143
We gonna win this game anyway!
Yeah! Come on, Sam!

Come on, Sam! Come on, Sam!

Megaphone:
Premiums as low as ten cents a week.
1394
01:40:12,381 --> 01:40:15,043
Don't let your family
be embarrassed.
1395
01:40:15,176 --> 01:40:18,543
On that final day,
let us put you away.
1396
01:40:18,679 --> 01:40:21,170
What's the score?
What's the score?
1397
01:40:21,307 --> 01:40:23,298
Sallie done it, bingo.
I was on my way.

Oh, man, I knew you was comin'.
I just knew you was comin'.
1399
01:40:25,603 --> 01:40:27,443
Everybody else was carryin' on,
but I was cool.
1400
01:40:27,480 --> 01:40:30,472
- Leon: Bingo, am I up?
- You pinch-hittin' for Isaac.
1401
01:40:34,904 --> 01:40:36,519
You get us that home run now!
1402
01:40:36,656 --> 01:40:39,147
Umpire:
All right, who's next? Batter up!
1403
01:40:39,283 --> 01:40:41,023
Get somebody up here!
1404
01:40:41,160 --> 01:40:43,321
Come on, mr Carter.
1405
01:40:43,454 --> 01:40:45,866
Here's your hickory, mr Carter.
1406
01:40:48,209 --> 01:40:50,291
What's the matter with you?
Cat got your tongue?
1407
01:40:50,419 --> 01:40:52,660
Gimme a touch for luck! Yeah!
1408
01:40:52,797 --> 01:40:56,790
Come on, Leon! Hit one!
You can do it! C'mon!

Sallie:

Well, you big hippo!
1415

You was always sayin',
"let's book a game with the all-stars."
1416
01:42:40,988 --> 01:42:42,148
What?
1417
01:42:42,281 --> 01:42:45,523
It was you who wagered to give 'em a spot
in the negro national league.
1418
01:42:45,660 --> 01:42:49,323
- Oh, woman!
- Well, you just did. You give 'em your spot.
1419
01:42:49,455 --> 01:42:52,413
My spot?
Woman, you can't do that.
1420
01:42:52,541 --> 01:42:55,408
Huh! Tell her, boys.
1421
01:42:56,337 --> 01:42:59,750

Jbuenos dias, Carlos Nevada!
¢; Como estas, amigo?

No more of that Spanish stuff.
Uh-uh.
1426
01:43:28,369 --> 01:43:31,577
I was stupid tryin' to break
into the white leagues as a spaniard.
1427
01:43:31,706 --> 01:43:36,791
- You gonna play for us again?
- Sure I am! Soon as I get my big break.
1428
01:43:43,008 --> 01:43:45,124
How, kemosabe!

Make 'em big wampum.
1430
01:43:47,096 --> 01:43:49,007
From now on, I'm known
as chief takahoma.
1431
01:43:49,140 --> 01:43:52,382
Yeah, that means "tomahawk"
in mohican.
1432
01:43:52,518 --> 01:43:56,102
You the original smoke signal.
1433
01:43:56,230 --> 01:43:59,222
Charlie:
Boy, you niggers played your ass off today!
1434
01:44:01,819 --> 01:44:03,901
Hey, esquire Joe!
1435

I love you, esquire.
1440

Mr long, there's a man...
Mr long, there's a man outside.
1441
01:44:23,632 --> 01:44:24,992
Bingo:
Hold it, hold it. Hey, what?
1442
01:44:25,092 --> 01:44:28,334
There's a man outside
who runs the Brooklyn Dodgers!
1443
01:44:28,471 --> 01:44:31,713
He say he heard a lot about me,
so he come down and have a looky see.
1444
01:44:31,849 --> 01:44:34,841
He wants me to go off
and play on some white farm club.
1445
01:44:34,977 --> 01:44:38,469
He say if I'm good,
he's gonna put me onto a team.
1446
01:44:40,107 --> 01:44:42,348
A white team?
1447
01:44:42,485 --> 01:44:44,100
He said we gonna break
that colour line.
1448
01:44:45,738 --> 01:44:49,356
The white team is takin' on the kid!
That's what he told us.

That's a whole lot of crap, man.

Ain't no big league gonna sign

But a rookie like you?

I thought I'd better come down

1459
01:45:24,193 --> 01:45:26,684
You know, sorta ask your permission,

01:45:26,821 --> 01:45:28,652

- Champ: Yeah, Joe. You can do it.
1464
01:45:45,798 --> 01:45:48,380

real good to me.
1465
01:45:48,509 --> 01:45:49,589
Oh...
1466
01:45:49,718 --> 01:45:54,337
I done learned a lot,
and I ain't gonna never forget it.
1467
01:46:03,232 --> 01:46:05,974
Rainbow:
Go get 'em, esquire Joe Calloway, sir!
1468
01:46:06,110 --> 01:46:07,270
Charlie: Ain't that a bitch?
1469
01:46:07,403 --> 01:46:09,143
They takin' negroes now
and I'm an Indian.
1470
01:46:09,280 --> 01:46:10,611
Fat Sam:
Get 'em, Joe. Go get 'em!

01:46:27,798 --> 01:46:30,790
Shit, I don't care.
We gonna rule the league now.
1476
01:46:30,926 --> 01:46:34,089
Yeah, man, that just as long
as the league's still here.
1477
01:46:34,221 --> 01:46:35,552
What that supposed to mean?
1478
01:46:35,681 --> 01:46:38,093
Ain't no black folks gonna pay
to see us play no more,
1479
01:46:38,225 --> 01:46:41,137
not when they can see kids
like esquire playin' with the white boys.
1480
01:46:41,270 --> 01:46:43,761
No, no, no.
This is the end of negro ball.
1481
01:46:43,898 --> 01:46:47,390
When they see Joe do his stuff,
they gonna be comin' back for some mo'.
1482
01:46:47,526 --> 01:46:51,110
They like him,
they gonna love us!
1483
01:46:51,238 --> 01:46:52,728
I'm afraid not, good buddy.
1484
01:46:52,865 --> 01:46:58,201
They like a new kind of coloured player
now, and we ain't nineteen no more.
1485
01:46:58,329 --> 01:47:00,490
Well, hell, that's okay!

01:47:00,623 --> 01:47:03,205

somethin' in your fuzzy head after all.

01:47:30,611 --> 01:47:34,069
Big business now, huh?
