Since Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier is mentioned more of a landmark event that the other three major sports being integrated, why shouldn't all baseball's history be erased prior to ROBINSON'S and others inclusion to baseball? Obviously the game changed once blacks were included, plus so many Hall of Famers and people of power were racists or stood silently by while 10% of the population was being denied a change to play the American Pastime......Just askin?.. It makes more sense than tearing down statues of US GRANT and ABE LINCOLN among other trivial symbolic ideas. :shrug:
