Ty Cobb is second now
Baseball Integrates Leaderboards

Major League Baseball officially updated its statistics leaderboard yesterday to include 2,300 qualifying men who played in the Negro Leagues between 1920 and 1948. The integration incorporates findings from a three-year research process initiated after MLB first recognized the Negro Leagues as major leagues in December 2020.



The update reshapes long-standing leaderboards, with legendary power hitter and Hall of Fame catcher Josh Gibson now recognized as the all-time leader in career batting average with a .372 mark, passing prior leader, Ty Cobb. Lifetime numbers from MLB players reflecting their time in the Negro Leagues were also recognized, including those of Jackie Robinson, Willie Mays, and Satchel Paige. See a rundown of leaderboard changes here. https://www.mlb.com/news/stats-leade...ro-leagues-mlb



Tacit bans in the major leagues forced Black players to create their own leagues in the first half of the 20th century. Jackie Robinson broke the sport's racial barrier when he made his debut with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947

Has anyone been able to solve the mystery about what player broke the color barrier as the first black player in the majors? That seems like a big deal. I'd be curious to find out who it was. I suppose it was the entire visiting team along with the lead-off hitter of the home team for the first ever Negro game ever played. But I want names and I want every one of those 10 players to have their numbers retired.

Most hockey players out of uniform are kinda shrimps. A big fast athletic 250 lb linebacker or 280 lb DE crashing the boards. This would be a team that would dominate. Get in some ice skates and dominate.

Moses Fleetwood Walker played in the majors 30 years before Rube Foster was the impetus behind a high-level Negro League.

She needs to be spayed it's in heat you see and you're the target. Or throw a bucket of cold water on her for immediate results.
