Tito Melendez is the ace pitcher no one else on the Beaufort Blackbeards deserves-but everyone on the team has to deal with. Narcissistic, media-averse, and hotter than a Carolina summer, Tito dominates the mound while demolishing egos, friendships, and public relations off it. Enter Brady Applebee, a party-loving bartender with a love for baseball and a taste for trouble, who just might be the only person who can handle Tito. Between losing games, navigating jealous coaches, and surviving the relentless scrutiny of sports media, Tito and Brady stumble and fumble their way through a season full of hot nights, questionable decisions, and enough humor to make even a losing streak unforgettable.
