Writing and directing, Ron Shelton, brings to life the baseball team of the Durham Bulls. With strong enough characters to keep me watching, it is a movie that I could enjoy at least that way, but for the person who isn't a baseball fans there are a lot of scenes with just baseball lingo and scenes that can drag, and it doesn't even get that magic interest that The Natural does for you. Kevin Costner and Susan Surandon have a lot of chemistry though, and that is what works about the movie, along with some humor from Tim Robbins.
Summary: Nuke is a new player on the scene, and a fan, Annie, usually picks one of the top players to have an affair with for each length of the season every year. This year though, Nuke is sent a mentor to help hone in his wild ways after the coach finds him in the locker room with a woman. Annie finds that she isn't falling for the man she chose to have an affair with though, but instead the man who was sent to mentor him through the season, Crash. It is further complicated by the fact that Crash has feelings for her as well.
