Through another war. baseball remained. The next struggle would come at home. Established America began, very slowly, to look at itself in the mirror and recognize an ugly truth prejudice. This theme runs its course throughout the rest of Bums' film, as it still remains, even today, unresolved. Black leagues flourished after the war. and some of the greatest players to wear a mit w-ere stars in these leagues. But they were shut out of Major League Baseball, Players such as Satchell Page and Josh Gibson drew huge crowds and helped create a successful but separate league. Baseball tells the stories that many of us have never heard before. Eventually the major leagues could no longer ignore black players. Though integration was finally an issue of money rather than justice (at least to the owners). Jackie Robinson broke the barrier and became the first black player in the Major Leagues. The victory was bittersweet though, as attendance at the black leagues' games began to dwindle. With star players taken away, these teams w ere relegated to another form of farm team. Its best players were allowed to play in baseball's country club, but so many other players were left at the gate. The road from there was hard, and Baseball doesn't gloss this period over. History cannot deny itself. With the likes of the incredible Willie Mays and Henry "Hank" Aaron, race becomes less and less of an issue in baseball Willie's first home run to the rafters, his over-the-shoulder catch in the World NIGHTTMU Series.
