I don't know anything about baseball, so I'm not sure what "eastbound and down" means (maybe a decrease in power, like "down the drain"?). But I'm going through Danny McBride's series before The Righteous Gemstones to check for parallels, particularly the treatment of LGBT people. Any gay characters? Any homophobia? Any queerbaiting? So Eastbound and Down, Season 1, Episode 1.
The premise: a disgraced pro baseball player is forced to teach phys ed at his old high school. Um...you need a degree in education and a year of student teaching to do that.
The full review is on Righteous Gemstones Boyfriends and Queer Codes
