Events: July, 1921

July 1: The USA officially ends its war with Germany.

July 2: Ivanoe Bonomi takes over as Prime Minister of Italy and therefore GM of the Rome Cardinals.

July 17: The first baseball game is broadcast over the radio. Harold Arlin announces the matchup between the New York Giants and Mexico City Aztecs. Due to the vagaries of the Tesla Device, the game, which is broadcast live, doesn't air until August 5.

July 20: Is it hot in here or is it just me? Breslau's temperature hits 39 degrees Celsius, which by my calculations is really hot.

July 28: Inflation riots occur in Munich, and elsewhere in Germany the man they sent to broker the Treaty of Versailles, Mattias Erzberger, is killed.
