## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

The one unholy trinity of baseball, romance and evangelism finds its spiritual home in 1905 Seoul. A lovelorn civilian mistakes a mission game for fate, borrows a bat to impress its left fielder, and unwittingly founds Korea’s first—and most aggressively pious—church league. It’s hard to know which deity this film prays to the hardest.

**Mood tags**: bittersweet, playful, tender
