Okay, Kids, Time For A Cartoon!

And now, ladies and gentlemen, from 1958, here is the debut installment of Paramount Pictures' Modern Madcap series, "Right Off The Bat," in which a desperate baseball manager, with his team's chances of winning the pennant--and his own job---on the line, was talked into adding  a horse to his roster.

This cartoon was produced in New York City by Paramount Cartoon Studios.  With story by Carl Meyer and Jack Mercer, animation by Tom Johnson (animation direction) and Frank Endres, scenics by Robert Little, music by Winston Sharples, and uncredited voice characterizations by Jackson Beck, Sid Raymond, and Jack Mercer, this cartoon was directed by Seymour Kneitel.
