HISTORY AND SPIRIT

Negro Leagues
"Because of baseball I smelled the roses of life. I wanted to meet interesting people,
to travel, and to have nice clothes. Baseball allowed me to do all those things, and most important, during my time with the
Crawfords, it allowed me to become a member of a brotherhood of friendship which will last forever."
--James "Cool Papa" Bell (of the Negro League's
Pittsburgh Crawfords )
