When Rachel Phelps inherits the Cleveland Indians from her deceased husband, she's determined to move the team to a warmer climate—but only a losing season will make that possible, which should be easy given the misfits she's hired. Rachel is sure her dream will come true, but she underestimates their will to succeed.

This movie has such an authentic feel to it. It perfectly encapsulates the ups and downs of a baseball season. The Rockies and White Sox wished they could pull of something like this.
Sidenote: Knowing the backstory of the Wesley Snipes run is so fucking funny. Comically slow playing the fastest player on the field.
