Abusive husband Herbert collects tropical fish, so his wife finds a creative use for the piranha, in a story with early art by Doug Wildey. When a despised ball player commits murder by baseball, his teammates get revenge, in a story possibly inspired by EC's infamous "Foul Play," published earlier that year.
