Rivervale, New Jersey, 1991. In the minor leagues, a journeyman baseball player attempts to attract every major club's attention. Roy (Lefty) Cobb is hitting a ball at 143 miles per hour for a wicked batting average. A sneaky agent is following him everywhere, or, more correctly, Cobb is following him. Pat Tuesday, George's new partner, gets to meet Cobb on the field, thanks to his good friend, who plays a game of number sequences with him. But those aren't number sequences. They are codes.
