After years of being the only man in a house full of females, Mike Baxter now finds himself surrounded by men as he participates in a co-ed softball league for work. He loves the sport and enjoys the camaraderie with his coworkers, but quickly becomes frustrated with the team's lack of skill.

Mike takes it upon himself to teach his teammates the basics of softball, but his efforts are met with resistance from some of the women who feel he is condescending to them. Meanwhile, his wife Vanessa is thrilled to have some alone time while Mike is away at games, but finds herself struggling to keep up with the demands of her job and running the household.

As the team struggles to improve, tensions rise both on and off the field. Mike is conflicted about how to handle the situation and maintain his role as a leader without alienating his teammates.
