In Response To: Reality Check (OT-baseball) (adambulldog)

I see your point, but I don't think Williams actually played against any of those players since they were all NL players. (Robinson switched to AL after Williams had retired). Were the top black players then predominantly from the NL? Did the NL do much better then in world series and all star game play?

I think it is a stretch to say the talent pool was half what it could have been. After integration was there ever close to half the players being black?
