To the disgrace of the Boston Red Sox, they were the last team in MLB to integrate, finally fielding Pumpsie Green in 1959 while under threat of a discrimination lawsuit. ap…

Doesn't the 2nd baseman usually play in shallow right field grass with no shift? ” As for the grass 1. Easier to tell which side of bag you are in the dirt, 2.…
