Plot

Spike the Bee is listening to classical music on the radio, pretending to be a conductor. Donald Duck interrupts him and listens to Baseball World series to hear his favorite star Casey and pretends to play baseball. Spike and Donald both fight for the radio, Spike the Bee threatens to sting Donald Duck as Donald hides in his house. Donald builds a fake radio with a dynamite stick and the dynamite explodes and the bee is shaken up. Donald laughs at him and runs around the bases. Spike the Bee gets revenge by pointing his stinger at Donalds rear end. Donald Duck slides for home base, but his rear end slides into the Bee's stinger, so he yells and jumps up.

The radio announcer tells people that Casey is out, and Donald Duck is angry about the game and goes into his house to take a shower. Spike the Bee locks Donald in the shower room from the outside lock and plays classical music as a conductor. Donald Duck sees this and tries in vain to open the shower door as he loses his temper, but he remains trapped in his shower room. The Bee then finishes conducting the music and rests.
