Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Fred umpires a PeeWee League baseball game between the Bedrock Giants and the Grittsburg Pyrites. During the game he is spotted by a big-league scout who sense professional potential in our hero. But Fred's new career may be nipped in the bud when the parents of the ballplayers (including his boss Mr. Slate) pressure him to make favorable calls whether they're deserved or not. The climactic scene includes play-by-play coverage from sportscaster Bill Stone, a spoof of legendary radio personality Bill Stern. This is the final episode of The Flintstones' second season.
