Line Drive centers on the author's experience of finding recovery from addiction through participation in a sober softball league. The short story highlight the challenges of early sobriety, the crucial role of community and mutual support in recovery, and the unexpected ways in which familiar activities can provide comfort, connection, and a path towards healing and self-discovery. The title itself, "Line Drive," a term from baseball describing a direct and powerful hit, metaphorically represents the focused pursuit of recovery and the impactful moments of clarity and progress experienced along the way.
