The Braves are bucking the trend with three African American players starting in the outfield. I saw this article last year and the photo made me recall it....http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/sports/baseball/story/2012-04-15/baseball-jackie-robinson/54302108/1
Major League Baseball has the lowest percentage of African-American players since the earliest days of the sport's integration, according to research conducted by USA TODAY Sports. The African-American population in baseball this season has plummeted to 8.05%. It's a dramatic decline from 1975, when 27% of rosters were African-American. -
