[edit] Plot
The New York Yankees are in a late-season collapse, and George Steinbrenner (Oliver Platt) is losing his patience with Billy Martin (John Turturro). George wants Martin to bat Reggie Jackson (Daniel Sunjata) in the cleanup spot. Billy is hesitant at first, but does so after George again threatens to fire him. Reggie does not want to at first, but gets used to it. The Yankees suddenly go on a tear since Reggie started to bat where George wanted him to.
Meanwhile, the Son of Sam continues to terrorize the citizens of New York City. The head of the Omega Task Force, Detective Timothy Dowd (Stephen Lang) starts searching for who the Son of Sam is. A key clue is after interviewing a woman, she mentioned about his parking ticket. Dowd and a few cops head to the car and find ammo in the trunk of the car. They find the owner to be David Berkowitz, and arrest him for being the Son of Sam.
