## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

A foster kid with a distracted dad places the team’s pennant hopes on last-place baseball—only to find divine assistance comes in the form of a halos-wearing mentor. When prayers summon a literal angel to coach the Angels, on-field chaos predictably follows. The film settles for serviceable miracles instead of actual baseball.

**Mood tags**: cozy, tender, uplifting
