As a lover of both baseball and storytelling, I’m fascinated by its cultural impact. Works like Field of Dreams and The Natural capture the sport’s mythic quality, blending nostalgia with universal themes of hope and redemption. Baseball isn’t just a game; it’s a lens through which we explore the American experience.
