I have changed the link to "color line", because it links to a company wiki.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.57.22.81 (talkcontribs) 17:32, 26 November 2006.

"Professional Baseball"

edit

"Fowler played 10 seasons of professional baseball, "a record until broken by Jackie Robinson in his last season with the Brooklyn Dodgers." - There should be a better way to state this. There were plenty of African-Americans who played 10+ years of "professional" baseball in the Negro Leagues, which were "professional" just not "recognized" or "organized" on par with the major leagues.
