During World War II, it seemed that the end of Major League Baseball was eminent. The United States was in a recession, and young men who would typically be out on the baseball diamond entertaining the crowds (that couldn't afford the tickets anyway) were needed to fight in the war. At the same time, there was an air of disgust toward the sport, as the remaining high-paid sports stars were continuing to play a child's game while their loved ones were being killed on the battlefield.
