Why follow a tabletop #baseball replay?

'47 #MLB (in "real life") had >1% Black players; this has 13%

#BLM #BlackHistory matters

We geek out about #BlackLeagues, music we love

#Trivia Q

Music = #Dion #GratefulDead #SpotTheConnection

APBA>real thing

This is #1947League!

BOOM!

GIBSON GOES LONG; BROWNS TOP TIGERS, TIE YANKS FOR 1ST PLACE

Roy Welmaker goes the distance for the Browns and gets the complete-game win; Josh Gibson assumes sole possession of first place in the #1947League HR race with his 20th 4-bagger.

Today's #1947League game also brought to you by a certain Nobel Prize winner who shall remain nameless. #SpotTheConnection for a No-Prize. (It's pretty obvious.)
