This stranger-than-fiction espionage thriller brings to life the true story of Moe Berg, a professional baseball player who became a WWII spy. A Jewish, Princeton-educated, multilingual catcher for the Boston Red Sox, the enigmatic Berg (Paul Rudd) was already a man of mystery when the US government's wartime intelligence agency enlisted him to assassinate the Nazi's chief nuclear scientist.
