Roger Dorn buys the fledgling Cleveland Guardians formerly known as the Indians. With attendance low Dorn tries to inject a new energy into the organization by bringing in former teammate and catcher Jake Taylor to be the Guardians manager. Taylor looks to restructure the entire Gaurdians roster by bringing in a some new players to change the identity of the Cleveland ball club. The Guardians still have some open roster spots so Taylor holds an open tryout where pitcher Charlie Reese that looks strangely familiar and shows an incredible throwing arm but lacks control of his pitches. Taylor decides to take a risk and sign the kid with hopes to teach him control. Under Taylor's guidance the Guardians start off slow, and it's not until Dorn holds an appreciation night for the 1989-1990 Cleveland Indians which features Pedro Serano, Willie Mays Hayes, Jake Taylor, Roger Dorn, and Rick Vaughn that the Gaurdians show signs of life and start winning games. After the appreciation ceremony the former players being honored look on as Charlie Reese pitches and Willie Hayes makes a comment to Rick Vaughn asking if he has any kids that he doesn't know about.
