A hardball TV sports journalist tries to find out who blackmailed her father, a future Hall of Famer, into betting on his team to win the World Series of Baseball. With the help of an idealistic sportscaster, who happens to be her old flame and a former teammate of her father's, she clears her father's name and discovers that, in the long run, heroes and dreams are all we've got.

SYNOPSIS:

Everybody's got dreams. Who but a corpse don't?

When Sarah McGraw's old man "Cracker Jack" tries to drive his truck through a tree, he decides it's time to tell his daughter and former teammate – All-Star catcher Matt Cooper – what really happened all those years ago when he got kicked out of baseball for gambling.

Jack's death-bed confession forces Matt and Sarah to bury their differences so they can work together to uncover the rest of the story.

Matt and Sarah soon find themselves on the road trying to clear Jack's name. With the last out finally recorded in the scorebook, Matt and Sarah realize that without heroes and dreams, we don't know how good we really can be.
