Jack Lightfoot and his baseball team are on a losing streak, and they can't figure out why. It seems that they are cursed by a rival team's mascot, a black cat that shows up at every game. Jack takes it upon himself to solve the mystery of the "hoodoo" and lift the curse, but he discovers that the solution is not what he expected.
