An adaptation of Masanori Morita's shonen manga "Rookies," this drama revolves around an enthusiastic high school teacher named Koichi Kawato (Ryuta Sato). He arrives at a school whose baseball team has been suspended due to a scandal. Most of the regular members and staff have abandoned the team, leaving only a group of bad students with no goals. Kawato makes it his mission to use baseball to reform those students and give them a direction in life.
