The baseball season gets off to a rocky start when the Durham Bull`s new catcher "Crash" Davis punches out the cocky young pitcher, "Nuke" LaLoosh, he`s just been hired to train. Matters get even more complicated when sexy Annie Savoy informs both men that each season she chooses one player to share her bed - and Nuke and Crash are this year`s "draft picks!"

The Durham Bulls are in a slump and have spent a hefty sum of money acquiring an untested young pitcher in the hopes of reversing their standings. Crash Davis, a 12-year veteran ballplayer who has spent most of his time bumming around as a minor league catcher, is assigned to mature the rookie pitching phenom named "Nuke." But a beautiful and enigmatic team groupie comes between the tutor and his student, enlightening both with her game of life, love and verse.
