Plot: What's the story about?

Moe Berg, an Ivy League grad and attorney, speaks nine languages, but that isn’t the only reason he stands out among his baseball teammates when he spends 15 years as a journeyman player for such teams as the New York Robins and Chicago White Sox. Berg doubles as a top secret spy for the OSS (a forerunner for the CIA), who helps the U.S. win the race against Germany to build the atomic bomb.
