For Jake, there is only one thing he loves more than playing shortstop for his team, and that's winning.

So when newcomer Adam joins the team, Jake is excited to see that this guy can do it all--pitch, hit, field! But as their team racks up win after win, Adam's talents dominate every game and Jake can't help but wonder: Do he or the other players even matter?
