| Description | "The first record of baseball being played in Brazil was in the early twentieth century . . . . It was originally played in Brazil by employees of U.S. companies who were in the country for short-term projects . . . . the game did not take hold among Brazilian citizens, who were already enthralled by soccer." Carlos Azzoni, Tales Azzoni, and Wayne Patterson, Brazil: Baseball is Popular, and the Players are Japanese!, in G. Gmelch, ed., Baseball Without Borders (U Nebraska Press, 2006), page 198. |
