The Courtship Of Eddie's Father Season 3 Episode 3 Getting Back On The Horse

Eddie's enthusiasm for baseball is dampened when he is hit by a pitched ball at practice a week before his team's big game. Afraid he may get hit again, he tells his coach, Mr. Malloy, he is quitting the team to devote more time to diving and swimming. Malloy implores Tom Corbett to get Eddie to play again. Tom, suspecting the trouble, tells Eddie in order to conquer his fear of baseball he must be like the man who gets back on the horse after he's been thrown. In the end, Eddie musters his courage and plays for his team at the big game.
