Default They Never Made It On To "Old Cardboard"

Posted By: Ryan Christoff

Why wouldn't non-US cards count? Do you mean non-major league cards? All of those Negro Leaguers have cards, including O'Neil. Of course, none of them have cards that picture them as Major Leaguers.

Also, Jackie Robinson was the first black player to hit a HR in the Majors.

Willard Brown was the first to hit a HR in the AMERICAN LEAGUE. Ironically, it was an inside-the-park home run.
