The Negro Teams         The teams that played in the Negro leagues were  talented and entertaining as those in today's Major and Minor Leagues. There were many Negro teams, and most every one of them had famous players. The Homestead Grays  had famous players like Josh Gibson, who hit about 75 home runs, and Buck Leonard, who played spectacular on first base.

      The teams in the Negro Leagues played from about 1910-1955 until they were allowed to play in the Major and Minor Leagues with the whites. There were 21 different terrific teams.
