Royal Retros

History: Owned by Effa Manley––the first woman inducted into Cooperstown––and led by star outfielder Larry Doby, the '46 Eagles won the Negro World Series, defeating the Kansas City Monarchs in seven games. The following season, Doby would join the Cleveland Indians and break the American League color barrier three months after Jackie Robinson would break the Major League color barrier.
