September 19941 Std. 53 Min.On June 19, 1846, at the Elysian Fields in Hoboken, New Jersey, a team of well-dressed gentlemen, the Knickerbockers, play the first game of baseball. By 1856, the game is already being called “the national pastime,” or simply, “Our Game.” But the nation is about to be torn apart.

- S1 F4 – A National Heirloom20. September 19941 Std. 54 Min.The 1920s begin with America trying to recover from World War I and baseball trying to recover from the scandal of the 1919 World Series. America finds relief in the boom market and the Jazz Age. George Herman “Babe” Ruth is one of the best pitchers in baseball. But he loves to hit even more.

- S1 F5 – Shadow Ball21. September 19942 Std. 3 Min.As America struggles to make it through the Depression, baseball provides them heroes. But the heroes do not come only from the Major Leagues. The Negro Leagues bring baseball to towns the Major Leagues ignore. They develop an elaborate warm-up routine in pantomime; throwing and hitting an invisible ball so convincingly, spectators can’t believe it’s not real. It’s called “shadow ball.”Gratiszeitraum für PBS Documentaries oder Kauf
- S1 F6 – The National Pastime24. September 19942 Std. 28 Min.When the war ends, Major League Baseball becomes what it has always claimed to be: the national pastime.

- S1 F8 – A Whole New Ball Game26. September 19941 Std. 54 Min.The 1960s are a turbulent decade for America. It is also a turbulent decade for baseball.

- S1 F9 – Home27. September 19942 Std. 25 Min.America and the world are seeing more changes than at any time in history. And so is baseball. Free agency, multimillion-dollar salaries, the designated hitter, a shocking gambling scandal, a new all-time home run champion, a World Series victory for Canada. And yet, paradoxically, the game remains timeless—still played the same way it was in our fathers’ and grandfathers’ time.Gratiszeitraum für PBS Documentaries oder Kauf
