It also captures the experience of growing up obsessed with baseball cards and explores what it means to be a fan of the game. Along the way, as we get to know Josh, we also get his classic observations about the central artifacts from his life: the baseball cards themselves. This is more than just the story of a man who can’t let go of his past; it’s proof that as children we grow up holding baseball cards, but in the end we realize that it’s really the other way around.
