I really enjoyed watching this movie during class. This movie starts off in Kansas city were a group of Dominican baseball players are training to try and get into the big leagues. It all starts with them sitting in a class with a proffesor teaching them how to speak english since they don't know how. His teaching these young men baseball terms and making them repeat after him. One of our main protagonist is Miguel aka (Azucar)who is known for not throwing so well but on the long run begins to throw really excellent strike outs. Miguel has family back home in the Dominican Republic whom he wants to help out with the money he earns playing baseball since were they live is a not as nice. His mom supports him all the way and is extremly gratefull for her son following his dreams. As they are in traning season he begins to sharpen up and the coaches are taking notice of him and concider to bring him into the big leagues, but before all that happens they put him to the test to see if he'll pass. The coaches have each team member go up and pitch to see how good they've gotten. Nervous Miguel goes up and his friend Jorge is encouraging him to relax and do good. Feeling some pressure he goes up and does his thing, he had impressed the coach and made it to the staright A- line were he would go out to play big leagues. He was so excited he called his girlfriend and mom to tell them the good new. "Mami pase para jugar en las grandes ligas.!"
