In the chaotic year of 1919, three intrepid reporters - two females disguised as men to survive a male-dominated industry, and one cynical cat searching for the truth - cover three distinct baseball teams. As the sport is rocked by mobsters, cheap owners, and the infamous Black Sox scandal, the three journalists unite in New York City to cover the birth of the greatest dynasty in sports history: The New York Yankees.  

SYNOPSIS:

A 4-part 60-minute Sports Anthology Miniseries involving the chaotic years in baseball, 1919-1921.

Part One - The Blueprint (Focus: New York Yankees): Introduces Al (Alice Leanne) Morris navigating the Polo Grounds. The Yankees are ambitious but lack a star. The episode establishes the oppressive male-dominated society Al hides from, the growing rift between the AL President (Ban Johnson) and the "Insurrecto" owners, and lays the groundwork of hope.

Part Two - The Fix (Focus: Chicago White Sox): A descent into noir. Patch Hicks uncovers the rot inside the greatest team in baseball. We see Comiskey's cheapness driving players like Cicotte and Gandil into the arms of Sullivan, Burns, Maharg, and Rothstein. Patch watches the 1919 World Series thrown, maintaining his silence and his journalistic integrity as the game's purity dies.

Part Three - The Curse (Focus: Boston Red Sox): High Drama and chaos. Charlotte "Charles" Waters tries to wrangle the team's superstar, Babe Ruth. Owner Harry Frazee dismantles the 1918 world championship team piece by piece. The climax of the episode is December 26th, 1919: Frazee smugly sells Ruth to the Yankees. Betrayed, Charlotte throws her press Badge on his desk and walks out in the snow.

Part Four - The Convergence (The Finale): 1920-1921. Al Morris, now the lead Yankees beat writer, hires a disgusted Patch Hicks and a liberated Charlotte Waters. They form a powerhouse press trio in New York, watching Ruth hit monstrous home runs. The climax hits when the Chicago jury acquits the Black Sox, angering Patch. But the very next day, Commissioner Landis bans them for life. Patch smiles in relief. The miniseries ends on a highly positive, triumphant note as the trio looks out over the field, ready to chronicle the greatest sports in history.
