Nick will be playing Casey “Dove” Porter, “an ex-Cubs pitcher brought in to coach the Rockford Peaches. Porter is famous because his forkball killed a dove in mid-air in the middle of a game. Described as inspiring and charismatic, Dove was thought to be the next big MLB star but blew his arm out after three years. Now he’s looking to make his comeback by making a pro women’s team, the Rockford Peaches, into champions.”

Amazon first announced that they were working on A League of Their Own reboot series last summer, with Broad City star Abbi Jacobson co-creating the series, and starring in it, alongside Will Graham.

Based on the 1992 movie directed by Penny Marshall, the series will also star Chanté Adams, D’Arcy Carden, Gbemisola Ikumelo, Roberta Colindrez, Kelly McCormack, Priscilla Delgado, Molly Ephraim, Kate Berlant, and Melanie Field.
