Episode 7: The End of an Era
By 1954, the writing was on the wall, and the end of the AAGPBL was fast approaching. But that didn’t mean that the Blue Sox didn’t want to win. Follow the South Bend squad as they follow the league toward its end and try to bring one last hurrah to the home fans. Sources include The South Bend Blue Sox by Jim Sargent; The Dutiful Dozen by W.C. Madden; archived newspapers including (but not limited to) the South Bend Tribune, Chicago Tribune, Kenosha News, and Racine Journal-Times; the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League (aagpbl.org); and Grand Valley State University Digital Collections.
Part of Series 3: South Bend Blue Sox and the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League
A Bend in Time is presented by The History Museum in South Bend, Indiana and hosted by Aaron Helman.
