“My name is Spade Shovel. I’m a detective. It was early in June when I got the call from young baseball star Kenny Cantrell, the son of a wealthy client. The job sounded boring, but I have to do something boring now and then. Otherwise, excitement sets in...”
Thus Spade Shovel, Private Investigator, is off for a wild weekend at the Cantrell estate. Grandmother Cantrell is convinced she has the power to “will” the baseball from the ballpark to her house every time Kenny hits a home run. They suspect Grandmother Cantrell of “mental problems” except that baseballs keep crashing through the living room window. The case is eventually solved, Grandmother Cantrell is saved from a trip to the “funny farm” and Kenny gets a pro baseball contract. A host of charming characters, plus the combination of humor, mystery, and suspense make this an ideal play for any group.
