"Jake's Home Run!" is the second segment of the twentieth episode of Jake and the Never Land Pirates. It premiered on August 26, 2011 alongside "The Sword and the Stone".
Plot[]
On Neverland, Jake and his crew are playing baseball. Jake mentions that the ball they're playing with is one he got from his favorite baseball team, the Tortuga Manatees. The ball soon ends up being caught by an octopus. Jake and his crew invite him to the game, and he accepts. On the Jolly Roger, Captain Hook spots them and notices that he used to like baseball, but when he was little, he was never picked for the team and never got to play. So, Captain Hook decides to steal the baseball for himself. As Jake swings the baseball, Captain Hook takes it with his oven mitt-hook. As Captain Hook and his crew attempt to escape, they are confronted by the octopus, who chases them away. Jake's crew and the octopus soon give chase in an attempt to get the baseball back.
Captain Hook's crew end up in Tiptoe Pass while heading to the Big Bottomless Pit, which is where Captain Hook plans to get rid of the baseball. As Bones is given the ball, Captain Hook sees Jake's crew and the octopus coming. Bones plays with the baseball, which bumps into some coconut towers, sending them crashing to the ground and blocking the path. As Captain Hook's crew continue to the Big Bottomless Pit, Jake comes up with an idea for the octopus to carry him, Izzy, and Cubby over the coconuts, which works.
Captain Hook's crew head to the top of a hill where they spot the Big Bottomless Pit and a baseball course next to it. Mr. Smee spots Jake's crew and the octopus catching up. Captain Hook decides to distract them with a moldy mango while Mr. Smee, Sharky, and Bones throw the baseball down the Big Bottomless Pit. Captain Hook holds up the mango, and Jake thinks it's his crew's baseball. Captain Hook flings it on top of a cliff. To reach that height, the octopus stretches his arms to make a ladder for Jake, Izzy, and Cubby to climb.
Jake soon finds out that Captain Hook tricked his crew as he finds out that Captain Hook threw a moldy mango. Captain Hook soon hears Mr. Smee, Sharky, and Bones preparing for a game of pirate baseball. He tells them what they're doing, and Bones states that they couldn't help themselves. Captain Hook takes the baseball and is about to get rid of it when Jake's crew and the octopus arrive, wanting it back. Captain Hook refuses, and Mr. Smee tells Jake and his crew that when Captain Hook was little, he never got picked to play on a baseball team. Jake stops Captain Hook as he is about to throw the baseball into the Big Bottomless Pit.
Captain Hook throws the baseball to Mr. Smee while the rest of the crews join in on the game. Captain Hook catches the ball and is cheered for it. Captain Hook realizes how good he is at baseball when the octopus tickles him. He throws the baseball to Sharky, who bounces it to Bones, who in turn bounces it to Jake, who catches it. Captain Hook then sends it to the edge of the Big Bottomless Pit. Izzy uses her Pixie Dust to save the baseball just in time. As Izzy sends the ball to Jake, the octopus traps Captain Hook's crew in his arms.
Back on Pirate Island, Jake and his crew put all the gold doubloons they collected into their Team Treasure Chest before resuming their game of baseball with the octopus. Captain Hook appears, and after Jake mentions it, he decides to join the team. Captain Hook soon scores a home run before stating that he really loves baseball.
