Their dreams are simple enough. Park wants the girl. Grady wants out of the small town. Kate wants being herself to be enough. Darren wants his past erased. Ricky wants something to replace the family he's lost. Together they form one of the most unique high school baseball teams in Kansas. But when Park's self-righteousness and Grady's partying result in Tommy, the youngest player on the team, getting beaten, they all must set their dreams aside and decide if their lives will be determined by circumstance or their own decisions.
