In celebration of a prosperous and uninterrupted legacy, the game was rejoiced throughout the land a hundred years later. Fans, players (professional and amateur alike), as well as the disinterested, now regarded baseball as the uniting spirit of American culture — the common thread in our otherwise quilted society. By virtue of its wide popularity and its demonstration of enduring vitality, baseball distinguished us from all others on this globe, and 1939 did indeed mark a threshold to our promised and unending future.
