National Colored Baseball League (NCBL)
1887 NCBL Audio & Video Clips
Recap
The National Colored Base Ball League or the League of Colored Baseball Clubs was the subsequent attempt after the Southern League of Colored Base Ballists to have a league consisting of all-black teams, predating Rube Foster's Negro National League by over three decades. The league president was Walter S. Brown, who was also manager of the Pittsburgh club. The Gorhams beat the Keystones 11-8 in the opener on May 6, 1887. Philadelphia and New York disbanded on May 18. Cincinnati and Washington were admitted on May 6, after the season started, but played no games. The league folded after two weeks on May 23.
