Some teams, including the Cuban Stars and the Chicago Giants, were “road clubs”, which meant they always traveled, playing in any stadium available.  Without a home field, they never played in a stadium they were used to, or that gave them the home team advantage.  Often, they were not able to use the white dressing rooms.  They had to dress in their buses or their hotels and drive to the game.  Afterwards, they were sweaty and dirty, and couldn’t clean up or take a shower.  This made many of them angry.  They felt like second class citizens.
