The love of baseball and the "simplicity" of the 1950s when the game meant more than the money–that's the theme of this film that follows aging pitcher Roy Dean Bream (William Russ) as his career nears an end with a losing minor league team. The manager is under pressure to let Roy go to make room for a new player, Tyrone (Glenn Plummer), the team's first black player. A friendship grows between the two, and Roy shows Tyrone his "special" pitch that once gave him a short stay in the major leagues. But, Roy's days are numbered on the team.

Shakespeare's "Macbeth" is reset in 1970s' Scotland, PA. It's all there: greed, multiple murders, ambitious wife, stubborn spot, and visits from a ghost. In this clever and entertaining riff on a Shakespearean tragedy, the catch is that the intrigue takes place in a diner.
