The Call Up

An aging minor-league catcher forms an unexpected bond with a young girl battling cancer, but when his lifelong dream of reaching the majors finally comes within reach, he must choose between baseball glory and the chance to save a stranger's life.

After years of chasing his major-league dreams, aging minor-league catcher Colston Clark knows his time is running out. When he forms an unlikely friendship with Maggie, a young baseball fan battling cancer, he finds renewed purpose both on and off the field. But just as an improbable opportunity to reach the majors finally arrives, Colston learns he's a potential stem cell donor for a critically ill stranger. With the donation threatening his long-awaited shot at baseball glory, Colston faces an impossible choice: pursue the dream he's sacrificed everything for, or give someone else a chance at a future they might never see.
