Playing America's Game: Baseball, Latinos, and the Color Line - American Crossroads
Burgos, Adrian, Jr.
Latinos have been a significant presence in organized baseball from the beginning. This study on Latinos and professional baseball since the 1880s tells a story of the men who negotiated the color line at every turn - passing as 'Spanish' in the major leagues or seeking respect and acceptance in the Negro leagues.
