Joel is allowed no spending money by his uncle and becomes known as a tightwad. He falls in love with Abby Nettleton, a waitress in the college beanery, and she encourages him to try out for the college baseball team. Joel makes the team, but he does not realize that he has been given a number and a uniform only because the coach thinks that he will make a good team mascot. During a crucial game, no other players are available, and Joel is put in as a pinch hitter. He hits a home run, wins the game for his team, and becomes the campus hero. Written by AFI See less
