The Storytellers 249 Chapter Notes 302 Bibliography 368 3 Nathanson/A People’s History of Baseball Prologue What is baseball? At first blush this appears to be a straightforward question. And in many ways it is. Baseball is a game. Nevertheless the question persists: what is it, really? Football is a game, but it isn’t baseball. Neither are basketball and hockey. Putting aside the differences among balls, pucks, rules and regulations, there seems to be something fundamentally different about baseball when compared to these other sports. All of them are games, but to many people, baseball is baseball. In a sense, it is something else altogether. This sense perhaps comes from the notion that, aside from a game, it is also a concept. It is America’s game -- our national pastime – so therefore it bears significant emblematic weight. And it has historically borne this weight remarkably well. -

Acknowledgements Thank you to all who have played their part in the realization of this study. The network of family, friends, colleagues, students, and mentors who have inspired, supported, challenged, and refined it is broad. There are, of course, countless people who have influenced it in subtle ways. But there are also many who have influenced it much more directly. Most immediately were those on my dissertation committee. Jeff Meikle has long provided me an intellectual model of how American Studies can unlock and energize our understanding of the past. His close reading of my work—from my first year at Texas to the final word of my dissertation—was invaluable. I can hardly express how grateful I am for that. I was further blessed by the influence of others at the university, as examples of both committed teaching and vibrant scholarship. -
