I think it still has room to run, both because of what other members have said, but also I think a lot of the black/Latino players who paved the way are belatedly getting their due. Personally, I didn't fully appreciate the impact Jackie Robinson had on the game and the country until I watched Ken Burns's documentary, and I'm sure that's the case with Clemente/Doby/others too.
