"ESCAPE TO NEW YORK: THE MIKE PIAZZA STORY."
ACT ONE:
Mike becomes a star with the Dodgers and Mets, while always secretly pining for Derek Jeter. He has the pick of the litter, babe-wise. But he's a defensive liability. His life is never complete.
ACT TWO:
Mike is released by the Oakland A's. He goes from card show to card show, fashioning out a meager trade, having his pick of the litter, aging dancer-wise. But something is missing.
ACT THREE:
The phone rings. It's Brian Cashman on the line. "Jorge's hurt," the plucky GM says. "We need you." Mike is stunned. "I'm a defensive liability," he says. "They'll run on me." But he goes to Denzell Washington (played by Oscar Gamble), who teaches him the art of self-control. And then he signs with the Yankees, leads the team to the championship, and wins at last the man of his dreams.
