Americans have played baseball in one form or another since the early 19th century—while they conquered a continent, warred with one another and with enemies abroad, and struggled over labor, civil rights and the meaning of freedom. At the game’s heart lie mythic contradictions it is a pastoral game that was actually born in crowded cities;it is an exhilarating democratic sport that tolerates cheating—and has excluded as many as it has embraced; a profoundly conservative game that has sometimes managed to be years ahead of its time. **Part 3 Third Inning the Faith of Fifty Million People** Inning Three, The Faith of Fifty Million People, examines the century's second decade, which was dominated by the Black Sox scandal. George Herman "Babe" Ruth makes his first major league appearance (as a member of the Boston Red Sox) and a wave of immigration helps fill the stands with new fans, eager to "become American" by learning America's game. ==See Also== {{https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baseball_%28TV_series%29|Wikipedia}} ==Trailer== ,,Full Version Available Upon Request,, {{ youtube>YjHTb2u7_Ic }} \\ {{tag>Sports Baseball Ken_Burns PBS SER PBS_-_Baseball_(1994) 1994 Ar05/16 Name}}
