Awesome, love it!!
I’m not gonna lie, I can’t believe I’m almost at 200 portraits for this project. I really hope I’m doing these guys and gals the justice they deserve.
August 24, 1913, Chicago's National League Cubs, in an exhibition game in Schenectady, New York, defeated Rutland, members of the Tri-State league by a 5-0 score. Rutland wanted to pitch Frank Wickware of the Mohawk Giants, but Chicago refused to play against the Negro.
