One season. No salary. A nation on fire. When baseball legend Boog Logan vows to play the season without pay, it starts as a headline. Then a hashtag. Then a movement that grips the country. Overnight, Playing for Free becomes a national obsession—a storm of patriotism, media spectacle, and televangelical zeal. Boog is everywhere: idolized by fans, branded by corporations, and used as leverage by those who see not a man, but a weapon. At the center of it all: Eleanor Von Steiner, ruthless architect of a billion-dollar laundering scheme hidden behind the game. As scandals erupt—rigged bets, staged breakdowns, smear campaigns—two unlikely allies rise. T.J. Stroker, a burned-out journalist chasing one last truth. Riley Chen, a whistleblower with everything to lose. Together, they begin to expose the machine behind the movement—and the cost of worshiping a symbol instead of the truth. And as the nation watches, Boog must decide: protect the illusion, or shatter it forever. A blistering sports thriller of faith, power, and manipulation in the modern age.
