When he loses his speed, former Major League Baseball pitcher, Kenny Powers (Danny McBride) is forced to move in with his brother in his old home town. Kenny takes a job as a substitute physical education teacher at his old home town.

Kenny Powers continues to struggle with life after baseball. His efforts to raise money through personal appearances falls flat and his job as a teachers assistant sees him struggling with small town community needs.

Kenny's money troubles increase and he resorts to trying to merchandise all his memorabilia from his playing days. As sales don't go as well as expected, Kenny suspects he needs God in his life.

Kenny looks to rekindle an old flame at a barbecue hosted by April and Cutler; Stevie cuts a greatest hits DVD for his favorite ballplayer in hopes of getting Kenny a big-league tryout.

In the Season One finale, Kenny says goodbye to his life as a schoolteacher--and bids farewell to Dustin and his family--after he's tendered a big-league job offer in Tampa.
