It attempts to answer the question “How did baseball come to be what it is today?” An Art Lieberman production, this film is narrated by former American baseball player and manager Mr. Branch Rickey who recounts the sport’s history and offers personal anecdotes. Incidentally, Branch Rickey was instrumental in breaking Major League Baseball's color barrier by signing black player Jackie Robinson. George Herman “Babe” Ruth Jr. (0:13).
