Wareham Community Comes Together to Honor Joe Campinha
Sunday evening on Spillane Field, the Wareham Gatemen recognized the first Cape Verdean professional baseball catcher, Joe Campinha, for being one of the pioneers who helped break the color barrier in baseball s minor leagues.
Yes, he was a very important part of that struggle, said Campinha s daughter, Dr. Josepha Campinha-Bacote, President and Founder of Transcultural C.A.R.E. Associates. Insightfully, Campinha-Bacote talked about the inequities of American society, back then and continuing to today. The struggles are similar, she said.

Marilyn Robinson remembers her school days when her dad was more famous to others than to her.  But all of her teachers knew the former Negro League baseball player.
“One day my dad was coming to school,” Robinson said, recalling her father Stanley Jones’s visit to Bessemer’s Dunbar Elementary School. “He was coming to see my teacher and she got so excited to be able to see somebody famous.”
Years later, Robinson raised the eyebrow of a professor at Lawson State Community College.
“I said my dad went to Wenonah High School,” she recalled. “He said, ‘Who’s your dad?’ I told him my dad is Stanley Lee Jones and he played with the Birmingham Black Barons. He was so excited. He remembered my dad. He went and told other professors, ‘Hey, I’ve got Stanley Jones’ daughter in my class. ” ....

Solomon Crenshaw Jr.
For The Birmingham Times 
 James “Jake” Sanders’s voice was hoarse but that didn’t stop him from expressing his joy that Major League Baseball now views the Negro Leagues as major league.
“That’s the greatest thing that could have ever happened for the Negro League ballplayer because we have been left out of everything,” said the 86-year-old former outfielder whose Negro League career in the 1950s included stints with the Kansas City Monarchs, Raleigh Tigers, Birmingham Black Barons, New Orleans Bears and Detroit Stars. “That’s the best thing that could have ever happened.”
Major League Baseball announced in mid-December that it is reclassifying the Negro Leagues as a major league. ....

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WBRC) - A former Negro League player is calling a recent decision by Major League Baseball an honor. Up until this week, MLB didn’t officially consider the Negro League as a major league.
William “Bill” Greason had a pretty mean curve ball and could strike you out in a heartbeat with his fastball.
“If I got two strikes on you, it was over,” Greason said.
Greason, now 96, reminiscing of the days when he played for the Birmingham Black Barons which is a part of the Negro League. Before that, he was a member of the Montford Point Marines , America’s first group of African Americans to serve in the U.S. Marine Corps during World War II. He ended up on Iwo Jima. ....
