Hardball Synopsis
Keanu Reeves, Diane Lane and a young Michael B. Jordan score in this uplifting story of triumph over adversity. Conor O'Neill (Reeves) is a down-on-his-luck gambler in debt to loan sharks. Desperate for cash, Conor reluctantly takes a job coaching a youth baseball team. The "team" turns out to be a ragtag group of tough-talking kids from Chicago's inner city. Secretly, Conor plans to desert the team after he wins a big bet. But the stakes are higher than Conor imagined: The kids need someone to believe in. As Conor wrestles with his past, the kids start to teach him some lessons that will forever change his future-that responsibility and trust must be earned and hope can appear in the most unlikely places.
