Jon McCann, a blue collar everyman who struggles with bipolar disorder, is equal parts obnoxious and reverent when it comes to his beloved baseball team, the Philadelphia Phillies, who he covers religiously on his amateur YouTube channel.

When the team’s expensive new player, $300M Trea Turner, enters a downward spiral despite the city’ sky high hopes for him, the infamous fans turn against him, fervidly booing their own player (a time-honored Phillies tradition). Jon, who intimately knows the ways of despair from his mental health crises, has a contrary impulse: Don’t boo. Give Trea a standing ovation. His suggestion goes viral, inspiring a stunning 42,000 person ovation that would change Trea, the Phillies, and maybe even Philadelphia, forever.
