Baseball Behind Barbed Wire

H
ere's an interesting article on how baseball helped keep teenagers out of trouble in Japanese American "relocation centers" during World War II.

A lovely children's book that explores a similar theme is Ken Mochizuki and Dom Lee's "Baseball Saved Us." (Regrettably, the internment revisionists have trashed the comment section of the amazon page.)
