Wins, Losses, and Empty Seats: How Baseball Outlasted the Great Depression
David George Surdam
Organised baseball has survived its share of difficult times, and never was the state of the game more imperiled than during the Great Depression. Or was it? In this economist's look at the sport as a business between 1929 and 1941, David George Surdam argues that although it was a very tough decade for baseball, the downturn didn't happen immediately.
