Black Baseball History Month!... Baseballer Of The Week!...Matty Alou!

  

Our 'Baseballer of the Week'

for this week 

goes to:

the Big Black Man, 5-9, 160, who was a 

player and manager, and was a 2x All-Star 

Gamer that won the NL Batting 

Championship in 1966, and he uniquely 

played with his two brothers, Jesus and 

Felipe to become the only time three 

brothers batted in the same half-inning and 

the three brothers also played the three 

outfield positions in the same half-inning 

while their team, the Giants, led the 

Pirates 13-5 on September 15, 1963, 

with some highlights here,

and we give flowers and say the name of...


1966 Batting Champ




...Matty Alou!

Black Baseball History Month!... Baseballer Of The Week!...Hank Thompson!


Our 'Baseballer of the Week'

for this week 

goes to:

The Big Black Guy, 5-9, 174, who had an 

exceptionally-strong throwing arm, so 

you know that his primary position was 

at the 'hot corner' third base, and he and 

Willard Brown were the first two Beautiful 

Black men to appear in the same starting 

lineup, and he was the first Beautiful Black 

Player to play in the AL and the NL on 

two separate teams, and, with Willie Mays 

and Monte Irvin, he was part of an All 

Beautiful Black outfield in the 1951 World 

Series, plus he was the 3rd player 

contracted after the horrible segregation period, 

he and batted left and threw right, and, amazingly, 

he hit at least three inside-the-park home runs,

with some highlights here, 

and we give flowers and say the name of...





1954 World Series

...Hank Thompson!

Black Baseball History Month!... Baseballer Of The Week!...Larry Doby!

  1949, Larry Doby (AL) and Jackie Robinson, Roy Campanella, and Don Newcombe (NL) became the first Black All-Stars.


Larry Doby integrated the AL just 11 weeks after Robinson joined the NL.

Our 'Baseballer of the Week'

for this week 

goes to:

the Big Black Guy, 6-1, 180, who was a 

standout four-sport high school athlete, 

and he fought in WWII, and was the first 

Black Man to play in the American 

Basketball League, and the first Black Man 

to play in the American Baseball League 

with the Cleveland Indians after the racist

segregation era, signing on July 3, 1947 

and debuting on July 5th, without first 

playing in the minor leagues, and was 

the first Black Man to Homer in a World 

Series, a 425 footer solo shot, and along 

with pitcher Satchel Paige, they were the 

first two Black Men to win a World Series, 

plus, he also was an All-Star seven years 

in a row, 1949-1955, and was the first 

Big Black Man to lead the Majors in homers 

with 32 'big ones' in '52 and '54, but he 

had to wait almost 40 years to get into the 

MLB Hall of Fame in 1998, although 

he still has statues in multiple cities, 

oh, and he was the second Black Man to 

manage a MLB team, 

and so much more...
