Billy Chapel (Kevin Costner) is a star pitcher with the Detroit Tigers, standing on the mound at Yankee Stadium and throwing what is shaping up to be a perfect game with the help of his best friend and catcher, Gus Osinski (John C. Reilly). However, Billy is having a hard time keeping his mind on the game; he’s come to a crossroads in both his personal and professional lives, and he isn’t sure what to do or where to go. He’s learned that the Tigers are about to be sold, and the new owners intend to trade him at the end of the season, and that his girlfriend Jane (Kelly Preston) is planning to leave him.

Meanwhile, with Vin Scully announcing, one Yankee batter after another fails to reach first base. Can Billy pitch a perfect game, and if so, what does it matter if he loses Jane?, Billy Chapel has played 19 seasons with the Detroit Tigers. But his throwing arm is not what it was, and his team owner tells him that if he doesn’t retire after the last game, he will be traded. In his final moments on the pitcher’s mound, Chapel thinks back over his lifelong romance with his girl and the game., Kevin Costner slides into his third baseball-themed film, a well-crafted sentimental voyage which nicely blends romantic drama with intense on-field action.
