Baseball
Throughout America, and even on the baseball diamonds in New York's Central Park, thousands of homeless people build shantytowns called "Hoovervilles." More than ever, America needs heroes. And even as it struggles to make it through the Depression, baseball provides them. Inning Five, Shadow Ball, tells the story of the Negro Leagues in the 1930s, excluded from major league play at that time.
Inning Nine, Home, looks at baseball from the 1970s to the 1990s.
Inning Eight, A Whole New Ball Game, moves the field to the 1960s
Inning Seven, The Capital of Baseball, takes viewers through the 1950s.
