I think you have to be very careful with effects that they don't overpower the story with the visual element.

Never again will I allow our political self-interest to deter us from doing what we know to be morally right. Atrocity and terror are not political weapons.

You have to remember that baseball really was the American pastime in the Forties, not football, basketball or any other sport.
