In <544@petfe.UUCP> I asked about the first black baseball player because
I remembered the Trivial Pursuit card which said it was not Jackie Robinson.

I have been inundated with responses, including mention of Larry Doby (the
first Black in the AL), and lots of other suggestions.  Well, last night I
went home and dug out the Trivial Pursuit card with the question on it.
It reads, "Who was the first black to play major league baseball?"

The answer is: "Moses Fleetwood Walker".   NOW does anybody have an answer
or suggestion as to who this guy is????
