The title's phrase, "Three Outs and One Run," points to the core rhythm of the game: each side batted until three players were out, and a single run could decide the outcome of an inning. The "National Game" label was a common nickname for baseball in the nineteenth century, when it was becoming the most popular team sport in the United States. Lithographs like this one, from the period when the New York firm Currier & Ives sold sporting and genre scenes to a broad public, helped spread that identity by showing ordinary players and crowds as a familiar part of American life.
