"Swat" Anderson (Hoot Gibson) is a cowboy who plays on the town's baseball team and can hit the ball so far they have to send a man on horseback to retrieve it. It isn't long before a major league scout signs him to a professional contract. "Swat" can hit and he can run but he can't catch a ball which makes him a bit of a liability. That doesn't keep a gang of gamblers from deciding to kidnap him to ensure they win betting against his team in the championship series.
