Happy MLK day all. In the spirit of the day Id like to honor the 3 gentlemen below and what they went through in their careers and their respected barriers. I know there are plenty others out there that deserve recognition but I choose these 3 ball players.

Don't look back, America, something might be gaining on you: http://photos.imageevent.com/exhibit...ps%20Paige.jpg And how about a little love for the man who broke another color barrier ten years before Jackie R. set foot on Ebbetts Field? http://photos.imageevent.com/exhibit...ebsize/024.jpg |

1952 Rookie of the Year. First black pitcher to win World Series game. Supposedly, he would always refuse to autograph this card which he hated.
