The Kid From Cleveland (1949) 

Troubled by his father's death, ​teenager Johnny Barrows (Tamblyn) finds himself cursed with bad breaks!  His love for the game of baseball, especially the Cleveland Indians, whom have an instant impact on his life.  Befriended by Indians Broadcaster Mike Jackson (Brent) and his wife Katherine (Bari) gave Johnny a new comforting way of looking at life.  Team owner, Bill Veeck and the entire Indians ball club gave Johnny a shot of being integral member in the dugout.   However, Johnny's lifestyle is like a knuckleball, not knowing where it will go next.  Legendary players from the late 40's baseball team appeared and were a fantastic addition to the movie.  Review by HH from HollywoodMovieJerseys.com
