#1947League #trivia question
Today's hero, Dave Barnhilll, played with a Globetrotters-like barnstorming outfit known as the Miami Ethiopian Clowns. An NAL team with a similar business model was the Indianapolis Clowns.
Who was the most famous #MLB alumnus of the Indianapolis Clowns?

CORRECT! Henry Aaron was an Indianapolis Clown!
Well done!

Why follow a #tabletop #baseball replay?
'47 #MLB (in what purports to be real life) had >1% Black players; this has 13%
#BLM #BlackHistory matters
We geek out about #BlackLeagues and music we love
#Trivia contest
Music = #AlabamaShakes #TrustCompany
APBA > real thing
This is #1947League!

GIANTS OVERPOWER CARDS
Walker Cooper's 2-run HR not only capped a big third-inning rally, it also produced a 3-way tie for the HR lead in #1947League. It was his nineteenth.
Ed Steele swiped his 41st base.
We're a little over a third of the way through the 154-game season.
STLC 5 7 0
NYG 8 12 0

All three are on a pace for high 50s, which is more than I expected. This is Gibson's late career ....
