There's an old adage, a daughter is a daughter all of her life, a son is a son til he takes him a wife...
It sounds like mom has some issues about letting go, he's already travelling a lot with baseball, and is embarking in a pretty exciting career, but to have you, this young woman come along, and take whatever little time he's got left away from her? You, dear, are the enemy and you are taking away her baby (I'm assuming he's the youngest?)
Doesn't make it right, doesn't make sense, and I'd nope that mom was a little more mature about it but it seems to how she handles issues.
You are doing the right thing, by just being nice being pleasant being agreeable trying to get along.. Hopefully mom will come around... Are you able to talk to the other brother's girlfriend? Maybe she was poorly treated at the outset too..
He seems kinda fond of you based on his post... You seem kinda fond of him... I don't think he can tell his mother where to go without causing irreperable harm, but he can ask her to be civil in your presence.. And he seems to be seeing his mom's behavior now...
Hang in there, he seems like he's worth it.
