Answer:

James, my younger brother, is a baseball player.

Step-by-step explanation:

An appositive phrase is a noun or a noun phrase that "renames", identifies or gives further information of another noun placed right beside it. In the sentence, "My younger brother" acts as an appositive phrase because it is situated beside another noun: "James", and it gives further information of "James."
