What were the business aspects of professional baseball during
World War II? The sport, like many nonessential industries,
struggled to find its place in society during a time of war. The
men who ran the game faced government interference and manpower
shortages that threatened to shut down their businesses for the
duration, and they had to balance the need to show a patriotic
front to the public while at the same time protecting their
investments. Archival and primary sources provide insight into the
perceptions of the major league owners and an understanding of how
most of them were able to keep their businesses profitable while
the nation fought an enormous two-front war.
