The Devil in the Diamond

Two soldiers. One American. One Japanese.


One thing in common - baseball!


World War II is coming to a violent close.


As the Battle of Okinawa rages on, American soldiers seize Shuri Castle and find a single survivor: Yuujin Miyano. The U.S. private put in charge of watching this prisoner is Eugene Durante. Although enemies, the two men find they have a common multi-generational bond: baseball. Their grandfathers bore witness to, and helped shape, the extraordinary birth of the game.

 

When the fighting ends, the two men return to their homes to face a postwar world neither expected.


Then both receive unexpected messages that will change their lives forever. Once more, the veterans will face off in a final dramatic clash.
