  • From Satchel Paige to Jackie Robinson many of the greatest players in baseball history started their careers in the historic Negro Leagues. To honor their contribution to baseball history, and their incredible talent, Topps has produced the first concentrated set of Negro League cards featuring players in their original uniforms, designed by Major League Baseball veteran turned artist, Micah Johnson. The full set of cards will be revealed during MLB at Rickwood Field: A Tribute to the Negro Leagues June 20th on Fox.

    I think this is fantastic. I’m 62 now, kind of done with baseball the past decade or so. It’s a changed game (for me) but give me old time baseball and it turns me into a 12 y/o little leaguer again, when baseball was rampant in my DNA. I somehow lost it along the way and that’s too bad. It seems there was a lot more talk about the Negro league back then, and that too seems to have went by the wayside. I used to collect Tops cards as a kid. Those too are all gone, I hate to think of the cards I had that were tossed. I’m going to see if I can get a hold of these cards though, going to do that right now.

      Topps was sold to Fanatics since it had already lost its MLB exclusive license deal, so now it's a different kind of scam.
      I still love cards, and never tossed mine. And while I've been reticent on wasting money on new cards, these at least have soul. Long overdue.

    Goodebumps throughout this entire clip.
    My family and I have been to the NLBM twice. You feel and experience a quiet reverence when you are there.
    Giants of the game.
    This Topps project is pretty monumental.
    What I wouldn’t give to stand in the box with Satchel on the mound. I wouldn’t take the bat off my shoulder. I just want to hear the ball whizz over the plate and smack the catcher’s mitt. And see Satchel smile.❤⚾️

    Well done Topps! I may throw them under the bus at times on my channel, all in good fun, but they really knocked it out of the park with this one!!

    Great idea. If we could see this set expand with one new card a week for the next 3 to 5 years it would be amazing and collectors would learn so much beyond the great players like Mays, Jackie and Paige.

    I love those set! Living up the street from Jackie Robinson ballpark has been great! This Negro League collection is a long overdue celebration of talent. I scooped R1-R4, but somehow missed 5 & 6. Can't find the dates on Topps for the last 2 either. ?

    Shows you how utterly ridiculous racism (or sexism or homophobia) is. Super strong athletic people should be able to reach their potential always

      Most of the great ones of the era like Dihigo and Tiant Sr. also played in the negro leagues.
      Los Tiantes should be in the HOF if.you ask me

    • @DaxSmokax
      @DaxSmokax Před 19 dny
