When teenager Billy Jenkins emerges as Australia's top baseball player, every scout in the land is eager to sign him to a high-money deal; including the major League New York Stars, who send their top scout, Duke Carlisle to Melbourne to see if Jenkins is as good as his press clippings and highlight packages. Spoiler alert - he is. Can Carlisle stay out of trouble long enough while he's down under and sign the teen before someone else does? Jenkins' first stop on his way to the show is Mosquito Lakes, Florida, where a bevy of local beauties are lying in wait to sink their polished nails into Jenkins and the other young ballplayers gathered for their first spring training.
