When the history of baseball’s Negro Leagues is told, the women who were part of the game should not be forgotten. During the early 1950s as the league was fighting for its survival, 3 women were signed and played for the Indianapolis Clowns.  They were Mamie “Peanut” Johnson, Connie Morgan and Toni Stone.While racism and ‘Jim Crow’ laws were rampant, these women also faced sexism from fans, teammates and opponents alike. There was also Effa Manley – Co-Owner of the Newark Eagles with her husband Abe. Presented by Ike Brooks A THIS is League Park presentation
