Fourteen-year-old Eddie Ogden (Taylor Ball) is the best player on his baseball team. He also happens to be a natural-born chef, and it is this peculiar talent that opens him up for ridicule, not only from his fellow players, but also from the team’s coach, who happens to be Eddie’s father (Mark L. Taylor). After enduring such jibes as “Will he trade his baseball mitt for an oven mitt,” poor Eddie is in for even more verbal abuse when he enters a prestigious cooking contest - on the same day as the championship ballgame.
