At 17, Daniel had to give up his newborn son for adoption due to his parents’ insistence.

Years later, as a 27-year-old little league baseball coach, he encountered a new student, Robert, who bore a striking resemblance to his late girlfriend, Emily. Daniel, who had been coaching since leaving a teaching career, couldn’t shake off the feeling that Robert might be his son.

Daniel and Emily had been young and unprepared for parenthood when Emily tragically died giving birth.

Their son, whom Emily’s parents refused to accept, was given up for adoption on Daniel’s parents’ advice. Daniel, who had been coaching kids around the age his son would be, found himself constantly thinking about his decision.
