Baseball and science fiction meet in an animated fantasy. Beaver's ball club is no roaring success: he's burdened with a team that includes a disgruntled eagle, a lackadaisical cat and a turtle whose reflexes are... well, turtle-like. They're just the target for a slick ("trust me") promoter named Irwin, who whisks them away in his souped-up spaceship for a game against the undefeated Alien All-Stars— champions of the universe. From the opening pitch, the "friendly little interstellar encounter" is anything but close. The Aliens jump out to an early 99-0 lead through a combination of power hitting, unscrupulous plays and shady gimmicks. Finally, when the earthlings are about ready to hang up their cleats, Beaver calls a much-needed timeout to plan their comeback.
