Best Answer

In the US Civil War many men from different parts of the country played similar games. During the war they all came together and the rules became codified. When the war was over and they went home, Baseball became popular all over in the next 30 years baseball became a professional sport.

It started to grow more in the 20's and 30's with radio, and then again after WW2 with television.

Baseball was invented in England around the same time as Cricket. Britain prefered cricket and baseball was never very popular until it reached the USA. No sport has really grown from Baseball.
