What is more American than Hot Dogs, Beer and Baseball? From upstart to present day, baseball reflects America as a whole. Issues like race, immigration, drugs and greed can be seen throughout the game today as it is in society. Throughout all this, America's resilience always comes through. Even with the game enthralled in a PED scandal and ticket prices ever increasing, attendance continues to rise. This 4th of July weekend take some time to enjoy what the game means to you personally and to the country as a whole. Remember those that fought and are still fighting for our freedom. And of course, experience America's Past time.
For much more insight and eloquence than I can offer, visit the American Museum of Natural History's website regarding baseball in America.
