American love of baseball is absolutely a trope in WWII films. It was part of a recent "Masters Of The Air" episode where a German interrogator tried to establish rapport with a captured American flier by discussing the most recent World Series. It's like baseball was the only American sport during the 1930s and '40s.
Masters of the air is Amazing! The costumes alone are amazing. Restored leather bomber jackets, period accurate women's clothing, they even got the medals on their jackets right and you can see them changing the episodes. Colleen Atwood did an amazing job.
