Overview

In a timely piece addressing issues of race and sports, a black father confronts prejudice in the form of a white umpire who earlier that day has ejected the man's son from a youth-league baseball game. Now the father holds some unexpectedly powerful cards, and the umpire must seek forgiveness. With a cast of three actors and a simple set, this powerful play is well-suited for the widest range of production circumstances.
