A Baseball Family is a community that includes the family you’re born into and the extended baseball family you adopt along the way.
For players, it starts with a mom or dad who initiates the first backyard catch. The ones who drive to and from games and tournaments near and far. Who cheer you on from the sidelines either frozen solid or burnt to a crisp while you follow your dream. They know enough to sit in silence on the ride home after a crushing defeat, and how to celebrate a perfect game. It’s the coaches who shape you and push you beyond what you thought was possible. It’s the teammates who become baseball brothers, forever connected through love of the game. The ones you depend on to make the plays and to have your back on and off the field. It’s the baseball family you get to choose, forever bound by the laces.
For baseball parents, it’s the moms and dads of teammates that become your adopted baseball family. You see the game from a different angle and have the ability to choose your own tribe. It starts with a sideline social club that eventually becomes part of your clan. Lifetime members of your extended baseball family. Friendships you may never have made if not for that first backyard catch.
Every baseball season eventually comes to an end, but the bonds and connections you make through the baseball community will stand the test of time. You don’t need to share DNA to be part of a baseball family. You just need to share a love of the game and the baseball family you choose to include along the way.
