Combining real and fictional events, this movie centers around the historic 1986 World Series, and a day in the life of a playwright who skips opening night to watch the momentous game.

Nicky Rogan's new play is opening on Broadway and many agree, he has written the best play of his career. Or has he? Critic Steven Schwimmer is slated to review and he's ruined many a playwright with his scathing words. Nicky is becoming concerned, but instead chooses to obsess over his Red Sox and their chances against the Mets in Game 6 of the 1986 World Series. Will the Sox and his play come crashing down on the same night?—Martin Lewison <[email protected]>
