I know Merkle’s Boner was covered in Baseball, but I’ll have to go back and review that. Burns was a master at fading in and out of still photos and with voiceover making you think you were seeing a movie.

As a sports fan and history buff, Burns series was very well done. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen it.

I wish I had been to some baseball games in the old stadiums of the 1930s and 1950s, a Golden Age for baseball. And gone to a few Indy 500s then, too. Just to get a different feel for a sports event in that era. I went to Wrigley Field last week for a Cub game and yes, it’s still Wrigley Field...but it’s not, if you know what I mean.
