Author's Summary: Dean Winchester meets Sam Morgan during Sam's rookie season in minor league baseball. When Dean is traded not long after, he can't forget the farmboy from Kansas.

Review:
Dean and Sam fall in love the first time they set their eyes on each other. It takes a long time for Dean to admit that to himself, for Sam to figure out that he's gay, and even longer for the two to finally get together.

There are so many good things about this fic: the pacing, the character development (the author took time to allow Dean and Sam each grow into the person that's ready for the other), the perfect(ly) (fluffy) ending that makes all the angst you've suffered through worthwhile. However, what I really want to point out to you is that in this total AU, Dean and Sam are *not* brothers, though the author has managed to keep their characterizations very close to canon.

If you've been hesitant to read any Dean/Sam stories in the past due to their incestuous nature, I urge you to give Stealing Home a chance, and perhaps that will be enough to encourage you to read more SPN stories in the future.
