ABOUT THAT NICKNAME....“My dad (Billy) played and loved baseball. Knowing I would be his only son, he hoped I would play too, so he gave me a name that almost guaranteed I would. At birth, the doctor asked my dad what my name would be and dad said, ‘William Theron Davis III, but you can just call him Rookie.’ I’ve never answered to any other name.”
