That seems odd. It was common for Cuban players to play in both the Negro Leagues and the major Leagues. Off the top of my head, Luque and Armando Marsans both did a long time before Izzy Leon. (I believe Marsans is the earliest, but I don't have my references with me at work.) I wonder why Leon would get the credit?
