Ken Caminiti stars in his MLB debut for the Houston Astros on July 16, 1987, leading the team to victory over the Philadelphia Phillies. After his initial success, Ken struggles down the stretch of the 1987 season, and he struggles to earn the trust of Houston manager Hal Lanier and establish himself as a big leaguer. Major League Baseball owners collude against the players in free agency, setting the stage for a massive labor fight in the near future which will impact Caminiti's career forever.
