Story: The story is a modern retelling of the Faust legend set during the 1950s in Washington, D.C., during a time when the New York Yankees dominated Major League Baseball. Middle-aged real estate agent Joe Boyd is a long-suffering fan of the pathetic Washington Senators baseball team. Late one night, he sits up late, grumbling that if the Senators just had a "long ball hitter" they could beat "those damn Yankees". Suddenly, the smooth-talking Mr. Applegate - the devil in disguise appears. He offers Joe the chance to become "Joe Hardy", the young slugger the Senators need. Joe accepts, even though he must leave his wife Meg, and the story of the most famous season in Washington Senators history begins.
