杰基．罗宾森 (Jackie
Robinson) 打破肤色界线
美国在19世纪晚期，生活中有许多种族隔离政策，棒球也不例外。因为黑人不可以参加白人的职业队伍。所以有专供黑人球员参加的职业队伍；在1800年代后期，职业的非洲籍美国人球员只能在全为黑人的队伍内打球，如：古巴巨人队 (Cuban
Giants) 。但是某些大联盟队伍的棒球经理和拥有者，想要雇用非洲籍美国人。
为了要规避规则，他们把一些黑人球员列为西班牙籍 (Hispanic) 或美国原住民 (Native
American) 。
直到1940年代，棒球仍为一种族隔离运动。
但1945年时，一个天才型的年轻球员杰基．罗宾森 (Jackie
Robinson) 添加了美国黑人联盟 (Negro
American League) 的堪萨斯城市帝王队 (Kansas
City Monarchs) ；他成为
了棒球的最佳实验 (great
experiment) 。
As with many aspects of life in late-19th century America, baseball was segregated. There were separate teams for black players because they were not allowed to play on white professional teams. In the late 1800s, professional African American players played on all-black teams such as the Cuban Giants. But some baseball managers and owners of Major League teams wanted to hire African Americans. In order to get around the rules, they listed some black players as Hispanic or Native American. Baseball remained a segregated sport well into the 1940s. In 1945, a talented young player named Jackie Robinson joined the Kansas City Monarchs in the Negro American League. He would become baseball's "great experiment."
