Life is looking up for Xavier

Things are good with Jennie, his baseball coach believes in him, he’s earned the role of closer, and his dad’s coming home after serving ten years. But making up for lost time with his dad doesn’t go as Xavier had hoped. It seems his dad’s always angry with him. Or drinking. Or out. Or lecturing Xavier on what it means to be a man.

When the tension at home builds, Xavier’s own hot temper flares, threatening to send him down the same path as his father. Xavier is determined to make a different life. Can he figure out how to control his actions to keep his baseball dreams alive?
