After a near death experience thanks to his own mother, Jake Hollander has an adverse reaction to people, baseball, and family. His feeling of abandonment is slowly lost thanks to his foster family, The Atkins. They take him in and change his mind about everything. He becomes more open, better at baseball, and craves for family. Slowly all wishes are granted.

Noah looked apologetic.

I shrugged. "Who knows." I looked around. "Are we going to stay here a little longer?" It felt weird being the only ones not yelling for an autograph from the players.
