Default Former Negro Leaguers are thrilled MLB teams will honor them before Thursday's draft

Posted By: Ken McMillan

Buck O'neal was the best of the best. My aunt lives in Kansas City and worked for the Star. In her duties at the Star, she got to personally know Buck. He was a sharp old guy and everyone loved him. I have been fortunate in receiving several autographed baseballs from Buck himself. Hopefully baseball will eventually honor him with the Hall of fame. Lord knows with all he did for baseball he should be there. Too bad he wasn't honored before his death.
