Organized Baseball: Reworking the Transnational Circuit, 1946-1965 with Evan Brown (Hagley History Hangout)

Evan Brown, a 2024-2025 graduate grantee from Columbia’s Department of History, was featured in a Hagley History Hangout podcast episode titled Organized Baseball: Reworking the Transnational Circuit, 1946-1965 with Evan Brown. The podcast, hosted by the Hagley Museum and Library, features in-depth talks with staff and scholars about moments in U.S. history documented by collections at the Hagley Library.

The episode delves into the inside baseball story of the mid-twentieth century in North America, when players moved across borders and between leagues, and management was seeking new ways to exert control over their franchises and employees.
