Meet Buck Leonard, a first baseman for Homestead Grays—a Negro League baseball team. Before Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier, the exclusion of African Americans from major league baseball reflected racial segregation across the United States. The Negro Leagues offered African Americans the opportunity to play ball. Leonard played for the Homestead Grays for 17 years. After retiring, he stayed connected to baseball—for instance, attending a fundraiser for Little League teams as the guest of honor. Leonard’s story is part of baseball history. Join us Friday July 13, for “Giving and the Game,” a special reception exploring connections between baseball and philanthropy. Hear from our all-star panel. Savor our delicious ballpark-inspired Cuban menu. Explore rarely-seen objects from our baseball history collection. This event is part of our All-Star Baseball Film Festival. Link in the bio.
