Hot Curves is a 1930 American pre-Code comedy-drama film produced and distributed by Tiffany Pictures and directed by Norman Taurog.
Jim Dolan, with a little help from his grandmother, shows the Pittsburgh baseball team what a good pitcher he can be.
Jim also becomes involved in romance with Elaine, the manager's daughter, while Maizie, a gold digger, schemes to come between them.
Ballpark vendor Benny, by coincidence, becomes the team's catcher while his quirky sweetheart, Cookie, cheers him on.
Jim becomes arrogant, alienates teammates and is even suspended, but snaps out of it in time to save the big game of the World Series.
