Synopsis:
Crooks are inspired by a football game to use football tactics in the crimes. After pulling their first robbery successfully, the crooks are tracked to their hide-out by Batman. The crooks escape and strike again at a jewelry store. Batman has appointed Alfred as a lookout, but instead of alerting Batman he takes on the crooks himself. Batman and Robin eventually see the commotion and arrive in time to round up the gang.
