Behind the barbed wire, baseball helped many of these people survive this humiliating ordeal. One man, despite his small size, became a very big hero. His name was Kenichi Zenimura. Today, he is commonly referred to as \"The Father of Japanese-American Baseball.\" This poignant documentary pays tribute to Zeni; however, it is much more than the biography of one man; it is the story of a legacy in which baseball helped transcend bigotry and hatred to bring pride and respect to Japanese-Americans who loved the game. Covering over 100 years of history, it is filled with great baseball memories, including wonderful anecdotes of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRunning time: 35 min.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFOR HOME USE ONLY.\u003c\/strong\u003e For institutional use contact Chip Taylor Communications at chip.taylor@chiptaylor.com \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CHIP TAYLOR COMMUNICATIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50464868139056,"sku":"wez1790045366336","price":15.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/7531\/3456\/files\/diamonds-in-the-rough-dvd_1.jpg?v=1790045370","url":"https:\/\/unitardfitj.shop\/products\/diamonds-in-the-rough-dvd","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
