The Decade That Changed Baseball

St. Louis Cardinals ace pitcher Bob Gibson delivers a ball and Willie Horton of the Detroit Tigers swings for a strike in the first game of the 1968 World Series.

John Florio and Ouisie Shapiro join us to discuss their book, One Nation Under Baseball: How the 1960s Collided with the National Pastime. The book looks at how the social and political issues of the 1960s like the struggle for civil rights and the Vietnam War changed the game.
