Synopsis
A grandfather's trips with his grandchildren to baseball parks around the country is the backdrop for the light-hearted but instructional telling of stories about some stellar baseball players. These stars also provided off-the-field examples for young people to follow in the way they lived their lives. The kids learn why these men are part of baseball lore and why they should be remembered as more than ballplayers. Courage, charity and concern for others pop up in the lives of all of these men who, except for one, are in the National Baseball Hall of Fame. And, as Grandpa says, "He could have been."
