When the San Francisco Giants pay center-fielder, Bobby Rayburn $40 million to lead their team to the World Series, no one is happier or more supportive than #1 fan, Gil Renard. When Rayburn becomes mired in the worst slump of his career, the obsessed Renard decides to stop at nothing to help his idol regain his former glory—not even murder.

There is a scene in a sauna that features very close-up shots of a knife wound in a leg that is pretty visceral

There's a scene early on (first 20 minutes) where Rayburn is getting an injection for rib pain, with the implication that he has a broken rib, but the injury isn't highlighted

Gil is obsessed with star player Bobby Rayburn and watches him and his son from the top of a cliff. He also gets mad when Bobby doesn't react the way he wanted to the 'help' he got from Gil.
