Leagues Apart
註釋The story of the Negro Leagues and of the talented players who were not allowed to compete with the white baseball players. After Branch Rickey desegregated the Brooklyn Dodgers by hiring Jackie Robinson in 1947, and National League President Ford Frick offered to suspend any player who went on strike to oppose Robinson, the Negro Leagues lost their best players and the fans followed them. The Negro National League shut down at the end of the 1948 season and The Negro American League disbanded after the 1962 season.
