Does anyone know a link to a list of ALL the Negro Leaguer's who ALSO played in MLB?
Thinking of doing a theme that would include knowing which of the ATG cards would fall into this category. Thanks for any help...
1. Jackie Robinson
2. Larry Doby
3. Willie Mays
4. Henry Aaron
5. Roy Campanella
6. Satchel Paige
7. Monte Irvin
8. Minnie Minoso
9. Ernie Banks
10. Elston Howard
11. Buck O'Neill
12. Joe Black
13. Frank Robinson
14. Don Newcombe

This sounds like a real good project, I am doing a similar one. I am also reading the book, "Satch,Dizzy and Rapid Robert: The Wild Saga of Interracial Baseball Before Jackie Robinson".
The Major Leagues were not major until baseball was integrated. All records prior to 1947 should have a huge asterisks next to them.
During one season in the 1920s Babe Ruth hit 34 of his 60 HRs off of 12 "Major League" pitchers. If those bums had been replaced by the best Hispanic and Black pitchers of the day who knows how many fewer HRs Ruth would have hit.

My guess would be 1927...

1927 HR would be a record even roids cannot touch.
