With the help of some Major League Baseball superstars, the FBI attempts to infiltrate a counterfeit ring that sprung up during the 1998 home run chase between Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa. Using hidden cameras, under-cover agents and wire taps, the FBI believes they may have finally uncovered the world's greatest artist of forged signatures, which were used on memorabilia that were sold illegally nationwide, netting more than $100,000,000, the largest figure in U.S. history.
