Our 'Baseballer of the Week'

The Big Black Guy, 6-0, 205 who was

with MLB after the racist era slowly ended, 

and he was an All-Star in 1956 with the 

Cincinnati Redlegs as a fastball pitcher, 

besides being a standout star in track, 

baseball, and basketball at Springfield High, 

where he was also the first Big Black 

QB for the football team,

Black Baseball History Month was 

founded by Ralph Winge, D.D.S. 

in 2025 to commemorate, place value, 

and get to know, our Heroes, while 

standing and cheering for, the many 

International Black Men who 'Shocked 

and Awed' us with too many to count, 

fantastic and unexpected physical 

heroics at the Ballpark, in exciting 

efforts for their teams to cross home 

plate more than their opponents to win.



The Founder of Black Baseball History Month,

Ralph C. Winge, D.D.S.,

is also a College and Pro Baseball enthusiast, 

USC Dental School Graduate,

and elucidator of elatus labialis wingeulus.
