WheN KeN burNs’s landmark Baseball

miniseries premiered on THIRTEEN in 1994,

it attracted more than 45 million viewers,

becoming the most-watched program in

public television history. His new two-part

series, The Tenth Inning, picks up where the

original series left off, recalling the crippling

1994 strike, the steroid scandals, the rise of

Asian and Latino players, the new Yankee

dynasty, and more.

Burns spoke with THIRTEEN about this

tumultuous chapter in baseball history.

Ken Burns

A: The last two decades in the history of the sport

have been among the most consequential in the story

of our national pastime. And since the story of baseball

is a precise mirror of the country that gave birth to it,

we felt compelled to try to make sense of what has

happened with the game—the devastating strike of 1994

and the ongoing steroid scandal, but also some amazing

achievements that have reminded us why this has

always been and will always be our national pastime.

A: You cannot talk about baseball without talking about

New York City and specifically the New York Yankees,

the most important and dominant team in the history of

the sport. New York baseball also played a huge role in

our recovery from the events of September 11th. And of

course, the last bit of action we describe is the Yankees’

World Series victory in 2009.

A: I cannot imagine my professional life unfolding except

in public television. There’s no other place that would

have given me the chance to tackle in 11 hours the most

important event in American history—the Civil War—or

explore all the subjects that we’ve done. Public television

exists outside the marketplace, and my interests and the

way I approach films do too. I am thrilled and proud

and honored that they would allow me to be part of

this very complicated, utterly American family.

Q: Why did you

decide to do

a follow-up to

the original

Baseball series?

Q: What role

does New York

play in The

Tenth Inning?

Q: How would

your career be

different if you

didn’t have a

relationship with

public television?

In conjunction with The Tenth Inning, THIRTEEN will

air Baseball: A New York Love Story (Sun 26th and

Mon 27th, 10:30 p.m. on THIRTEEN; early Tue 28th

and early Wed 29th, 12 midnight on WLIW21), a

collection of baseball memories from World War II to

the present. Just as we did with Ken Burns’s last series

on national parks, we asked for your letters, photos and

video diaries and turned them into a uniquely personal

documentary and website. visit thirteen.org/baseball to

read these stories and share your memories.

this film recalls the colorful history of the

with former residents bring the bungalow

heyday to life, and archival stills from

the 20s, 30s, and 40s—including footage

of the Marx Brothers and their families

frolicking on Rockaway beaches—illustrate

why the area was such a mecca for

working-class families longing to escape
