Double Play! is a 1957 jazz album featuring pianists Russ Freeman and André Previn.
Together with drummer Shelly Manne, the album includes eight baseball-themed original compositions by Freeman and Previn along with the standard Take Me Out to the Ball Game.
It is notable for the unusual two-piano instrumentation, and indeed was advertised at the time as the first time that two pianists recorded "modern jazz" together.
