The 1960 baseball season is shaping up to be the worst year of Eddie O'Leary's life. When the team's owner orders him to give a bunch of interviews to some snobby reporter, he's ready to call it quits. Mark Bailey is not a sports reporter. He writes for the arts page, and these days he's barely even managing to do that much. The last thing he needs is to spend a season writing about New York's obnoxious new shortstop in a stunt to get the struggling newspaper more readers. Isolated together within the crush of an anonymous city, these two lonely souls orbit each other as they slowly give in to the inevitable gravity of their attraction. But Mark has vowed that he'll never be someone's secret ever again, and Eddie can't be out as a professional athlete. It's just them against the world, and they'll both have to decide if that's enough.
