Frequently Asked Questions
What is The Rookie about?
Jim Morris, a high school coach and former baseball player with a dream to play in the big leagues, makes a bet with his losing team: if they win the district championship, he'll try out for the majors. Despite their poor record, the team rallies and wins, and Jim, with his powerful 98 mph fastball, gets his chance to pitch in the major leagues. As the oldest rookie in the history of baseball, Jim faces skepticism from scouts and players, but his determination and talent prove him wrong. From a small-town high school coach to a Major League Baseball player, Jim's inspiring journey is a tale of passion, perseverance, and second chances.
