Not well accepted critically, it works VERY well for me. Costner plays an aging former-star pitcher, in the last game of the season and what may be HIS last game, whose sweetheart is leaving for London. It flashes back and forth, showing his meeting her and falling in love, all while pitching a possible-perfect game.
