Lines: 16 Xref: watmath net.sport.baseball:2233 net.games.trivia:2199 Who was the first black ballplayer? My history books and my instinct tells me the obvious answer: Jackie Robinson. Why then does Trivial Pursuit say that it was some other guy? Has everybody else seen that question? The answer is some other guy whose name escapes me, but whom I had never heard of. Is that just one of their blunders, or is there more going on here than I know about? --Evan Marcus -- {ucbvax|decvax}!vax135!petsd!petfe!evan ...!pedsgd!pedsga!evan Who messed with my anti-paranoia shot?
