在这部棒球菜鸟运动片中,查理·琼斯曾经是棒球大联盟的运动员，但是现在以前的风光不再，因为一次比赛失误他酗酒，并因此差点导致导致交通事故而锒铛入狱。他的事业跌倒了谷底，可以说是一个彻头彻尾的失败者。假释后，他遇到了一次机会，要接管一个犹太神学院的棒球队。执教过程中，他慢慢发现，这是他事业和生活的第二次机会，而且他也迎来了自己期待已久的爱情。
The Yankles is about Charlie Jones, a professional baseball player who was released from the Los Angeles Spirits because of a drinking problem. Upon being paroled from prison after serving time for his third drunk driving conviction, Charlie endeavors to serve 192 hours mandatory community service by coaching baseball. To Charlie's dismay, however, he is shunned by mainstream society because of the controversy surrounding his early parole and prior convictions. Charlie soon discovers that the only people willing to give him a second chance are a group of Jewish, orthodox, yeshiva students who formed an upstart baseball team called The Yankles. Fortunately for Charlie, The Yankles are as desperate for a coach as he is for community service. After a rough start, Charlie finds a home with The Yankles. With Charlie's help, The Yankles strive for success on the field, while Charlie works to rebuild his reputation in society and his relationship with those whom he wronged in the past.
充满诚意的一部作品。
