World War 2 led to the creation and popularity of women's baseball due to the shortage of male baseball players. With many men serving in the military, women were given the opportunity to play professional baseball in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League (AAGPBL). The league gained attention and became popular during the war years and continued for a few years after the war ended.

It didn't.
A huge chunk of the male players in the pro baseball teams were drafted or enlisted. Therefore the sport was essentially put to bed for the duration of the war. Therefore the female baseball teams were given a tremendous boost. They were able to travel around the country and provide baseball entertainment. There are still many of those women who played on the various teams alive today. Movies have been made about these great women. Gena Davis starred in one and it is a fabulous movie.
Baseball when they could.
