As this week marks beginning of the 162-game season for Major League Baseball. As the oldest sporting league in the United States, it has survived and thrived in many moments throughout history. But it was in World War II where it shined it's brightest. Stepping away from our series on the Battle of Britian, this week we take a dive into the state of baseball after Pearl Harbor, the players who left to fight, and the impact it made on everyday life in the United States.
