Jimmy Fleming throws left, hits right and left, and is hoping to become Hudson City's newest pitcher.Having moved from Pennsylvania, he's looking forward to making some new friends and playing the sport he loves. But while he makes the team, things don't go the way he'd hoped. His teammates aren't too welcoming and his time on the mound is less than stellar. It doesn't help that his dad is applying more and more pressure to be a star pitcher. Before long, Jimmy is wishing he'd never left Pennsylvania. But Jimmy isn't one to give up, and just when the season hits a low point, Jimmy's pitches - and his attitude - begin to find their mark.
