A life-changing experience at a mysterious pond leads them, not only to the big leagues, but starts them on a quest to find out about the greatest pitcher of all time…Cy Young. Along the road to fame, Tommy encounters a fanatical stalker who seeks revenge and plots his demise. Through adversity, Tommy learns the deeper meaning of life.
