00:31A CIRCUS
00:32Some of the town boys are playing baseball
00:34and I thought William would enjoy watching.
00:38What's he saying?
00:40He thought maybe he could play.
00:42No, it's not the kind of game I want you playing.
00:46My daughter is deaf.
00:48And how long will she be deaf?
00:50A few years now.
00:51She took fever after her mother died.
00:54You read their lips,
00:56and they just said they don't want you in town?
01:00Well, the hell we're under.
01:02Who's that?
01:04Well, I know it's a girl.
01:05She came in the shop the other day needing some shoes.
01:08You listen to me, boy!
01:10I don't want you near my daughter!
01:12You freak!
01:13I think you should follow your dream.
01:18My name is Dooley.
01:20I'm a baseball scout.
01:23I watched you play ball.
01:26You're a natural.
01:27You go back and tell Dooley,
01:29thanks but no thanks.
01:30I need an outfielder that can hear.
01:33I had a scout in Oshkotch who told me of a new guy.
01:36Catch.
01:36Throw a deep and dumb kid by the name of Dummy Hoy.
01:40How can I forget the great baseball players?
01:44Baseball is no place for dummies like him.
01:48Stay quick, Pitcher.
01:50Strike one.
01:51Strike two.
01:52Strike three.
01:53You're out.
01:54Because he can't hear.
01:55If he doesn't hit, I have no use for him.
02:01So you want me to raise my right arm when I call a strike,
02:04and my left arm when I call a ball?
02:06Come on up!
02:08Can't show him favoritism just cause he's a dumb kid.
02:11I want you to be proud of me and tell everyone,
02:17there goes my son.
02:20Have you seen him play ball?
02:22He is said to be a man of honor and high morals.
02:29Use your voice, Mr. Hoy.
02:32This kid has more heart than I've ever seen in this game.
02:38He is not one of us!
02:40Just getting in the way!
02:41You get someone who can hear!
02:43If anybody touches Dummy Hoy again,
02:45they're going to be dealing with me.
02:47I don't want to lose this game.
02:49I want the penalty.
