The mice have been invited by their cousin Pedro to attend the grand opening of the Panama Canal. He introduces them to his new friend Willy, the nephew of General Goethals who is in charge of construction. Willy and Pedro are worried that the canal will be finished in time. Frightened workers keep quitting. They keep hearing scary noises in the night and their valuables are being stolen. Pedro is convinced the scary noises are coming from El Mar Dragon- a sea monster that does not want the mighty oceans to be joined. Alexander doubts that, but agrees there is a mystery to solve. When they discover rat tracks, the mice set a trap and net the biggest rat of them all: Notail Nogoodnik. He's been robbing the workers, but he's just as frightened of El Mar Dragon as anyone. The mice must uncover the real El Mar Dragon and save Pedro from Notail's clutches before the Canal opens and lets in zillions of gallons of water!

Cousin Casey welcomes the mice to the first world series of baseball. Casey introduces them to his friend Joey, whose father is the team's pitcher Fast Ball McFall. But there's bad news: Fast Ball is in a slump. Fast Ball assures his son he'll pull out of it, especially since he has his lucky four leaf clover. Unfortunately, the manager for the opposing team knows that Fast Ball is very superstitious, so he makes sure the pitcher's lucky piece disappears. Meanwhile, the mouse world series between the Mudville Rats and the No Sox Mice is heating up while a particularly shifty looking rat keeps stealing the bases (literally!) It's that nefarious Notail Nogoodnik out to win at any cost and it's up to our mice to return Fast Ball's lucky piece and win the game for the No Sox Mice in the bottom of the ninth!
