Miguel hasn't missed El Salvador since moving to Canada with his mother and sister. Holding down multiple jobs and trying to play baseball leaves him little time. But Miguel's father is still in El Salvador and as violence in his old neighbourhood intensifies, Miguel becomes desperate to bring him to North America. But he can't even afford to join his baseball team on a road game— how can his family pay his father's way? Miguel's teammate suggests a baseball fundraiser. As the team learns about hardships many new immigrants face, Miguel and his family learn to accept help from their new neighbours and teammates.
