Morphology

baseball + season

The meaning 'the period of the year when baseball is played' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'baseball' (the sport) with 'season' (a period), so a learner who knows both words will understand the phrase. This follows a common noun+noun compounding pattern found across languages and in English, making the concept predictable for a B1 learner.

Etymology

Baseball season is a simple phrase that names the part of the year when baseball is played. Think of teams playing many games from spring to fall; that whole time is the baseball season, so it means 'the period of the year when official baseball games are played'.
