These days, baseball is more like Latin America’s favorite pastime. That’s where most of the best players are from.
I once read an article that said that football and cars were both originally popular in the North, and then they both became more popular in the South. Looks like baseball has moved even further south. But that’s okay by me. At least the Latinos have great reverence for the game, along with the Japanese.

Many, but not most. Mike Trout and Bryce Harper are the top two players in MLB, both white. Paul Goldschmidt, Joey Votto, Charlie Blackmon, Kris Bryant, Buster Posey. All white Americans, and all in the top 13 or so. And when pitching is taken into consideration, the situation becomes even whiter.
