Baseball Players Turn to Movies, Changing the Game

The article argues that movie theaters divert fans and money from baseball, while helping manage players and schedules. It notes easier oversight of players, altered travel and game routines, and increased promotion for the sport through film, contrasted with ongoing concerns about gate receipts and off field behavior. It also shifts to boxing, discussing Packey McParland and promotional theater stunts in 1915.
