for this week
goes to:
The Big Black Guy who was the 49th player
drafted after the' segregation period'
in the MLB. After serving in the
US Army, he played for the Homestead Grays
of the big Beautiful Negro Leagues for one year then
four seasons with the Indians,
and so much more...

Black Baseball History Month,
celebrated in march of every year, 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.,
and elucidator of elatus labialis wingeulus.
If you know a Baseballer who should be included here,
