15:23Now PlayingWhat America’s labor movement can learn from baseball’s power struggle between owners and players.
This week on 51/49, James dives into Rob Manfred and the 2022 Major League Baseball lockout, and journeys back in time to draw parallels between the 1890 Players' League, when baseball players revolted against the owners and started their own league, to the resurgent labor movement of today, where we have seen a record number of workers fight back against the exploitation of Corporate America.

Just FYI, the old baseball footage shown in this video is from the "Dead-Ball Era" between 1900-1920, and not from the 1890 Players' League.
