\ufeffSet in the 1950s, Damn Yankees tells the story of Joe Boyd, a devoted (and long-suffering) fan of the Washington Senators, who would do just about anything to see his team beat the mighty New York Yankees. When a smooth-talking devil named Mr. Applegate offers Joe a deal\u2014youth, fame, and a shot at baseball glory in exchange for his soul\u2014Joe finds himself transformed into star slugger Joe Hardy.
