For real, when I would go play softball around the way, Boricua and Dominican n1ggas used to sleep on the kid, particularly the older ones. Picking a n1gga last, or putting him somewhere that nobody would hit it to him "No, papi, joo play catcha" Then I'd line one past some old n1gga's eardrum and then they all like "oh, de moreno can play! Papi, next tine joo play on my team OK?"

Son, one time I was playing and this old n1gga was purposely throwing slop, and I wasn't swinging... He was standing out there getting heated and he was basically saying in Spanish "this n1gga out here playing around" So I bunted, which was like the cardinal rule of what NOT to do in softball, and when I got to first I said in Spanish "todavia estoy jodiendo?" That n1gga stood out there like

In a couple more years, our young BLACKEXCELLENCE Chitown Little Leaguers is coming

[yseJ]

honestly my Giants need a brother badly.
last time we had one was Manny Burriss, and he had like sub .600 ops
dude was there on affirmative action

IDK shyt about baseball, but there must be some black hispanic stars, no? Or is only African Americans counted as being black?

I think it's the other way around, most of them rather be called cuban, dominican etc than black.

 

[tremonthustler1]

@ the Weeks and Upton brothers. They were supposed to have shyt on lock as well as Hayward.

To answer this question, those players are out there. A couple of them have been named. The problem is that you're setting the bar inexplicably high because Griffey, Bonds, and Thomas had crazy charisma when you were growing up. Now it's like you won't accept a great black baseball player without him being super swagged out.

The future is bright though with Billy Hamilton, Byron Buxton, Addison Russell, the Gordon brothers

The real concern is the pitching.

As far as the bolded I'm a cubs fan can't wait til he joins bryant,baez,castro and soler in the big leagues

 

[King Poetic]

There's no hope at all.
