Frank Kamiyama—National Baseball Hall of Fame Library, Cooperstown N.Y. by [TIME Photo](https://time.com/author/time-photo/) ## TIME Photo Jun 13, 2014 11:00 AM UTC Of all the major professional sports, baseball is the one that most readily and ably lends itself to photography. Maybe it’s the leisurely — killjoys might call it glacial — pace of the game, punctuated by moments of intense drama, that allows photographers the time and space to chronicle the action. Or perhaps the cozy relationship between the national pastime and picture-taking is the natural result of the two endeavors coming of age at virtually the same time, in the mid-19th century. But whatever the reason, classic baseball pictures possess an evocative power that images of, say, football or basketball or even the beautiful game of soccer often lack.
