Pedro Sierra, hired to play for the Indianapolis Clowns, threw a fastball as sharply as Kid Gavilan’s bolo punch, a combination of a hook and uppercut that sliced through the air like a machete through sugar cane. He has lived near Atlantic City since 2004. Photo by Arlene Schulman.

Pedro Sierra poses on a concrete mound facing an imaginary batter. He tucks a baseball into his palm, hands as large as catcher’s mitts, setting up pitches based on physics, syncopation and deception. As his windup begins, his dark 82-year-old eyes fix on his intended victim like a cat ready to ambush a mouse. ....

A legendary Negro Leagues pitcher inspired a researcher from Fairport

A legendary Negro Leagues pitcher inspired a researcher from Fairport
A half-century ago this week, a seed was planted in the mind of a 6-year-old white kid from suburban Rochester who knew not a lick about Negro Leagues baseball. Doug Brei was an inquisitive lad, and already a voracious reader of newspaper sports sections, but when he came across the story that legendary pitcher Satchel Paige had been elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown by a special committee of Negro League experts, he didn’t understand its historical significance.
“I asked my dad about it, and he explained to me that, in the days before Jackie Robinson, African-Americans weren’t allowed to play in the major leagues, and had their own, very successful league, in which Satchel was its biggest star,’’ Brei recalled. “I said, ‘Oh, now I get it.’ And that really was my introduction to the Negro Leagues.’’ ....

2021 DREAM Series concludes with conversation on social issues

share-square-1772230
The final chapter of the weekend-long virtual DREAM Series took place on Monday in the form of an hour-long conversation between some of baseball’s most visible African American ambassadors. MLB Network host Fran Charles moderated a lively, insightful conversation intended to reach scores of young athletes who would, in more normal times, be on the field playing in one of MLB s signature showcase events.
Instead, retired pitcher CC Sabathia, former Major League manager Jerry Manuel, Negro Leagues Museum president Bob Kendrick and Charles had a back-and-forth online exchange that touched on several timely topics. All four brought a unique perspective to the conversation, but with one common theme: to encourage young African American athletes to continue to embrace a game still in search of ways to grow and become more inclusive. ....

The case of Willie Mays' missing HR: Will he get credit for Negro League blast? [San Francisco Chronicle]

FAIRFIELD-SUISUN, CALIFORNIA
The case of Willie Mays’ missing HR: Will he get credit for Negro League blast? [San Francisco Chronicle]
Dec. 21 The magical number 660 overlaps generations of Giants fans.
Everyone knowing at least a little about Giants franchise history knows 660 is Willie Mays’ home run total.
What if the number jumped to 661?
Negro Leagues statistics from 1920 to 1948 soon will be classified among statistics of major-leaguers, and 1948 was Mays’ rookie season with the Birmingham Black Barons.
It had been believed Mays had no home runs that year, at least based on statistical websites. Upon further review, he did hit a homer in 1948, according to newspaper clippings and a record of the Negro American League final stats. ....
