Baseball in Wartime is dedicated
to preserving the memories of all baseball players
(major league, negro league, minor league, semi-pro,
college, amateur and high school), who served with the
military between 1940 and 1946. World War II was a trying time for the United States and equally so for baseball. More than 4,500 professional players swapped flannels for military uniforms to serve their nation and future Hall of Famers like Bob Feller, Hank Greenberg, Joe DiMaggio and Ted Williams lost vital playing time in the prime of their careers. What is far less commonly known is that at least 130 minor league players lost their lives while serving their country. Some famous baseball players have become poker players. Pitcher Orel Hershiser plays as a pro at Pokerstars. You can click here to learn more about this site and other sites reviewed on pokersites.com.
