I worked a game at a dilapidated high school field that hasn't seen an improvement in 15 years. Every inch of the place is a s---hole. It is home to a team that wins LA city championships
Then when a college field is remade with the money of a Major League ballplayer, we find out that he is a steroid-using cheater and scumbag.
