Events - April 1 - Opening Day

April 1 - The Spartacist general strike breaks out in Germany. All over the place, people aren't working. Fortunately, Germany has no games scheduled during this period so, well, nothing really happens.

April 8 - The Prohibition Era begins in the United States, banning the consumption of alcohol. This is an idea that ought to end well.

April 9 - A Peace Conference opens in Versailles, France. Germany cedes a bunch of land to a lot of different countries, but they aren't in the League of Nations/baseball so it doesn't matter. However, as part of the ceding of Alsace and Lorraine to France, Germany also gives up 1Bs Oswald Treppel and Garin Newbert.
