4890...Baseball Breaks The Coloured Line

Back on this day in 1954 the Brooklyn Dodgers fielded a team that had more blacks on the field than whites.

This was a huge deal and still is.

The only sport that hasn't had more blacks on the field of play than whites is the NHL but it is coming sports fans.
