Eastbound & Down — Season 2
Every kid has a baseball player to look up to. Kenny Powers is not that guy.
About this season
Spurned by the big leagues and humiliated in his own hometown, Kenny Powers is heading south of the border to lick his wounds--and plot a comeback that might just land him back in the spotlight. In the wake of a bogus pitching offer, Kenny takes up residence in a small Mexican town and prepares to fashion a comeback scenario that involves a local baseball team and its filthy-rich owner.
