A better-than-fair offering
deickemeyer15 October 2018
A two-part picture for baseball fans with plenty of grandstand and "diamond" atmosphere. It tells an interesting, likable story and is a better-than-fair offering. But it was a serious mistake to introduce the girl as the picture's center of interest and then handle her tactlessly, make her a listener at doors and one too ready to meet a man at a café. Nor is she rightly the picture's center; that belongs distinctly to Bender, played by the great ball player. He also take the role of the "double" who is looking for money under false pretenses. There is much that is distinctly interesting in the picture and its interior photographs are life-like as can be. We dare commend it, taking all things into account, as an especially desirable offering. - The Moving Picture World, July 4, 1914
