The Battle that Forged Modern Baseball: The Federal League Challenge and Its Legacy

In 1914 and 1915 the newly formed Federal League struggled for profits and Major League status, the established leagues battled to stop them, and the players organized baseball's first real union. The consequences of this battle would shape the business of baseball and American professional sports in general for many years to come.
