Single mom Terry Gannon Jr. (yes, she’s named after her father) moves in with Daddy because… something about not being able to coach Little League. Doesn’t matter – – it’s all a pretense to get baseball expert Grandpa to help out with raising the grandson and the kid’s Bad News Bears type team, and in the process help Junior get her confidence back. This would have made a good in-flight movie, but it didn’t make it to Christmas as a TV series.
