Kenny Powers
Played by Danny Mcbride
When Kenny left Shelby County at the age of 19 to throw heat in the Big Leagues, the world was his oyster. But a few years of obnoxious behavior and sluggish pitch speeds landed him back in his hometown, teaching gym class and lusting after April, the one that got … ditched when Kenny went pro. Though he almost closed the deal with both April and a new Big League contract, things fell apart again, and Kenny bolted for points south.
