"Damn Yankees" is a funny and heart warming fantasy which pits the Devil against the Washington Senators and a middle-aged baseball fanatic who trades his soul for the chance to lead the Senators out of the cellar into a pennant race with their arch-rivals, the N. Y. Yankees.
When Joe Boyd leaves his loving wife to become Joe Hardy, the baseball sensation of the year, his victories soon pale as he realizes that what he left behind was as important as what he has achieved. With a little help from Lola, the Devil’s vixen, Joe outwits the Devil and returns to the world he left behind - but not before clinching the final game of the pennant race.
