In this pennant-waving old-fashioned movie, Kevin Costner returns to his favorite metaphor of sport as heroism. He plays Billy Chapel, a veteran pitcher whose beloved team -- the one he's been loyal to for 20 years -- is about to be sold, and whose girlfriend (Kelly Preston) has announced that she's trading him for a job. Can Billy dig deep into himself on the mound one more time? Costner's determination to avoid change keeps this baseball movie at a low line drive when it might have knocked one into the bleachers. C
