  • 038 Only the ball was dead

America’s National Pastime had a 20-year period full of growth and excitement known as the Dead Ball Era. It filled the gap between baseball’s first quarter century of development and the coming of Babe Ruth’s Bronx Bombers (aka the New York Yankees). Baseball was already the National Pastime by 1900 but the next 20 years would see it reach new heights of popularity. Despite the ball not being “lively” (a player with 10 home runs in a season might lead the league!), the game had a grip on America. Competition was fierce and runs were at a premium. Pitchers set records which will probably never be equaled. Baseball immortals wore numberless uniforms. The era began with the birth of the American League and the World Series and ended with its biggest scandal. Grab your peanuts and crackerjack and join lifelong baseball fan Joe Haberfeld as he leads you on a trip back to one of baseball’s most exciting periods.
