Synopsis: Diamond In The Rough follows the spirited adventures of a little boy who makes a brave decision to follow a dream despite overwhelming obstacles.
Toby Houser is a 7-year-old who is dealing with his parents’ divorce. His father has moved away, and he and his mother move to a neighborhood with no kids his age. Faced with conflict and devastating disappointments, the child chooses to fight back instead of dwelling on his broken home. He defeats the rejection that wells up inside him by pouring his energy into baseball.
Soon after moving into a new community, Toby discovers that America’s pastime is the sport of choice and decides to become a pitcher for a local Little League team. This proves to be quite a challenge since he knows nothing of the game. With only his dog, Pepper, to talk to, Toby musters up his courage and devotes his time to developing his arm. His mother realizes how important this is to her son and encourages him every step of the way.
With her guidance and the help of a couple of coaches who mentor the aspiring athlete, Toby discovers just how far one can go with a little determination and a lot of love.

I would like to connect with you there also. I am trying to make more friends and fans so that I can spread awareness for breast cancer during pregnancy. I was diagnosed Stage 3 in the 5th month of my pregnancy in May. My status updates on Facebook and LinkedIn are usually about my fight.
