The Duke City Don - 9639

In the late 1980s, Donnie Diamond, a hotshot pitcher from Venice Beach, arrives in Albuquerque, chasing his dream of making it to the big leagues. Playing for the struggling Albuquerque Dons, a ragtag minor-league team with more scars than trophies, Donnie faces not only the pressures of baseball but the ghosts of his troubled past—including an alcoholic father and a childhood spent bouncing through foster care. As the Dons battle empty stands, fading dreams, and a desperate owner on the verge of collapse, Donnie’s talent earns him attention—both from Major League scouts and the Mexican drug cartel pulling strings behind the scenes. Drawn into a dangerous web through Echo Rippling Night Water, a mysterious pilot with ties to the cartel, Donnie’s life spirals as he struggles to balance the game he loves with the secrets threatening to destroy him. With everything on the line—his career, his freedom, and his soul—Donnie must confront his fears, cut ties with his past, and fight for one last shot at The Show. But as the Dons’ stadium crumbles and a new era takes its place, Donnie learns that dreams have expiration dates—and survival means knowing when to walk away. The Duke City Don is a gritty, emotional story about redemption, sacrifice, and the thin line between ambition and self-destruction.
