Product Features

Through candid interviews with former players, sports historians, and celebrity enthusiasts such as Larry King and Ron Howard, JEWS AND BASEBALL traces the Jewish involvement in the history of the sport from Lip Pike (the first professional ball player) through the tumultuous war years to today's All-Star games. By analyzing various stages in this history—how the legendary Sandy Koufax pioneered rights for players, for example, or Hank Greenberg's support of Jackie Robinson—the film demonstrates how Jews shaped baseball, and baseball shaped them.
