Baseball: The Tenth Inning

Yes, Baseball: The Tenth Inning is a continuation of Ken Burns's landmark 1994 PBS documentary series Baseball, which covered the history of Major League Baseball from the 1840s through the early 1990s. The Tenth Inning was broadcast as a two-part film in 2010.

The Tenth Inning chronicles Major League Baseball from the early 1990s through the end of the 2000s. It covers major events including the 1994 players' strike that canceled the World Series, the 1998 home run race between Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa, and the steroids scandal that followed.

The documentary was co-directed by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick, who have collaborated on multiple PBS documentary projects including The Vietnam War and Prohibition. Burns had directed the original nine-inning Baseball series, which aired on PBS in 1994.

The film extensively examines the performance-enhancing drug scandal that engulfed baseball in the 2000s, including the congressional testimony of players like Mark McGwire and the eventual fallout involving Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens. It also addresses the surge in Latin American and Japanese players and the sport's recovery after the strike.
