“Double Play”

In "Double Play," Curly Joe finds himself mistaken for the legendary baseball star Homer McSlugger, leading to a wild scheme where he's hypnotized and sent to sabotage a big game—only to shine because his mind believes he's the real deal. Moe and Larry, tied up and desperate, must unravel the truth before the crooks’ plan succeeds, all while Curly Joe remains blissfully unaware. Art by Joe Messerli, with inks and letters by Tony DiPaola, this 1970 Western Comics classic delivers classic slapstick with a sports twist.

Curly Joe is a dead ringer for Homer McSlugger, the baseball champ. So crooks kidnap Curly Joe, have him hypnotized, and send him in to ruin the game while they win big. But Curly Joe excels because his subconscious thinks he's terrific! Moe and Larry are tied up but escape, but can't convince Curly Joe he's not McSlugger - until the crooks are caught and Curly is beaned by a ball.
