SYNOPSIS

The down and out California Angels are so bad, one dysfunctional family even begins to compare their own tragedies with this baseball team. When 11-year-old foster child, Roger, hears his drifter Dad sardonically compare the two — that the chances of reuniting the family are as good as the Angels winning the pennant — Roger takes it as a promise and the truth. That night, he prays for the Angel’s success, and in response, a star winks back at him with promises of baseballs faster than the speed of light and players able to leap tall buildings for a single catch.
