To play the American game.

- T1 E4 - A National Heirloom20 de septiembre de 19941 h 54 minThe 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.

- T1 E5 - Shadow Ball21 de septiembre de 19942 h 3 minAs 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.”Periodo de prueba gratis de PBS Documentaries o compra

- T1 E8 - A Whole New Ball Game26 de septiembre de 19941 h 54 minThe 1960s are a turbulent decade for America. It is also a turbulent decade for baseball.

- T1 E9 - Home27 de septiembre de 19942 h 25 minAmerica 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.Periodo de prueba gratis de PBS Documentaries o compra
