Found on the Road to Damascus : (Blessed are the Opossums)

Minor league baseball player John Locklear is convinced that his journey upward to The Show will continue as it has for years, in a solitary state unencumbered by any attachments to the human race. A series of unexpected events completely disrupts his lonely, repressed existence, forcing him to confront past demons and present challenges. John embarks on a harrowing journey of reminiscence, catharsis and tragedy, before ultimately emerging victorious on the other side, a man of faith whose priorities have forever been changed by the kindnesses of strangers.
