Undrafted

When 12 ragtag teammates set out to play what should be a meaningless summer intramural baseball game, it ends up becoming the most important game of their lives. This collection of characters--the reliever turned starting pitcher (Tyler Hoechlin), a hot-dog power hitter (Chace Crawford), an outfielder with anger management issues (Joe Mazzello), a player coach with clipboard envy (Duke Davis Roberts), an over-eager catcher (Ryan Pinkston), the old guy who shouldn't be playing anymore (Philip Winchester), and the guy everyone forgot was on the team (Matt Bush)--truly gives new meaning to the phrase "amateur status." As they struggle to transition away from baseball and towards an uncertain future, the best player among them (Aaron Tveit)--who they all felt should have gotten drafted--must deal with the news that his big-league dreams were dashed, leaving him grappling with why he should still play. One game can be just another box score, but when it's played by a team galvanized around the love of the game, and for the pride they have in each other, it can define a lifetime. Written and directed by Joe Mazzello ("Jurassic Park," HBO's "The Pacific," "The Social Network"), "Undrafted" is based on the real-life experiences of Joe's brother, a collegiate baseball star who was skipped over in the Major League Baseball draft.
