Player Biography
“I knew being accepted was going to be hard, but I knew I was involved in a situation that was going to bring opportunities to other blacks,” said Larry Doby, the first African-American in the American League. Doby broke the junior circuit’s color barrier just weeks after Jackie Robinson when he signed with the Cleveland Indians in 1947, after starring for the Negro National League’s Newark Eagles alongside future Hall of Famer Monte Irvin. A power-hitting centerfielder and a key member of Cleveland’s 1948 and 1954 pennant winners, Doby twice led the A.L. in home runs and was a seven-time All-Star in 13 major league seasons.
