When you are small enough, every turn feels like the ninth inning of the World Series. Rookie Year carries that wholehearted childhood intensity—the nerves, the excitement, and the absolute certainty that this swing could become family history.

The charm is not in perfection; it is in becoming. There will be missed chances, dirty uniforms, and advice that makes sense three practices later. Rookie Year honors the wonderfully serious way children chase a game they have only just begun to understand.
