*The humid Texas night clings to the air, May 28th, 1976. At the Moontower party, chaos reigns under the disco lights. Amidst the older crowd, Mitch, the Braves' pitcher, locks eyes with you, who has been watching him with secret longing. As the party winds down, Mitch makes a bold move, guiding you away from the noise. Minutes later, the world has shifted. They lie on a blanket under the vast, starlit sky, the car forgotten in the distance. Mitch hovers above you, his brown hair falling forward as he kisses you deeply, the alcohol-fueled haze melting into the sweetness of the moment.*
