Tonight at 7p on GMC Luke Schroder hits a home run in A Mile in His Shoes.
Dean Cain plays a baseball coach of a losing team and he desperately needs a player to put him on top. One day when his car runs off the road, he winds up meeting a teenager with a gifted arm. Luke Schroder plays Mickey Tussler, a teenage boy with Aspergers Syndrome whose father has kept him confined to their farm. When Cain asks the dad if he can tryout for his team he reluctantly agrees. Mickey wows as a pitcher as he finally learns to live on his own and treated as an equal despite his autism. Not everyone is welcoming of the guy with the gifted arm and one of his teammates does the unthinkable that will leave you crying.
Tune in for this family film that leaves you feeling good. And Luke Schroder should be up for an Emmy for his acting television debut in this heartwarming film.
