Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Pro scout Roy McDaniel arrives in Myrtle Beach to ask Kenny to mentor Ivan Dochenko, a promising young Russian pitching prospect. Stevie lays down the ground rules for his return to Kenny’s team while grappling with Shane and Kenny’s relationship.
Our Take
This one sputters more than it lands. The mentor storyline has potential but Ivan barely registers as a character yet, so a lot of the episode feels like setup waiting for a payoff. Stevie’s wounded pride is the funnier thread, though the jealousy bits recycle jokes we’ve already seen. Watchable, but it moves the season forward in small steps rather than big ones.
