Hispanics displaced them, as is happening in many fields of employment.

Baseball requires thought and patience. Being an overgrown illiterate thug is not a good match for Baseball.

Because, up until now, baseball hired the best man for the job. I expect that will give way to the question “Why are there no transgender lesbian midgets in MLB”?
The left had never found anything they don’t like.

Blacks are only like 13% of the population anyway so 7% of MLB players being black doesn’t seem all that weird. How come there are so few female MLB players? hmmm sexist much?

Why are there so few black hockey players and swimmers?

This racist woke shiite is ridiculous.

It must be ridiculed every time it rears its stupid head.

The top half of the FR comments are far more worth reading than the article (which is by a Gender Studies prof just in case any of you are thinking of wasting your time).

It's really just two simple answers that the author seems to have touched on:

1. Young black Americans have been migrating to basketball and football as their preferred sports since the 1970s.

2. Among Americans, the sport is being dominated by kids from wealthy families that can afford the cost of baseball academies and private coaching from a young age. It's no different than soccer and ice hockey now.

Why are there so few non-blacks in the NBA? Gotta be racism!

Who gives a shxt? Why do people care? Why is this “someone’s” issue?

If you like the game watch it.. If you don’t STFU.

it’s that damn simple.

Why no article from big media asking what has happened to the White American basketball player?

With the immigration floodgates opened illegally by the leftists blacks are going to become even more of a minority in America than before.

Black young men prefer the greater action of basketball to the briefer actions of baseball.
