Although the project isn't ready yet, Sam hops into the Accelerator and
leaps.  As Tom Stratton, an Air Force test pilot, Sam finds his memory
Swiss cheesed, with only enough left to know that he is not where or
when he belongs.  Al explains that the project has gone awry and that
the only way Sam can leap out is by flying the X-2 to Mach 3.  Instead,
Sam leaps after saving his wife and child, only to find that rather than
leaping home, he's leapt into Ken Fox, a minor league baseball player in
Texas, at the end of the 1968 season, where he must make the winning

Though his goal as a mafia hitman named Frankie is unclear, Sam follows

to the Project.  These instructions result in the Great East Coast
Blackout and, rather than leaping home, Sam finds himself in the life of
