Dick Cavett's Fastball Challenge with Vida Blue and Bob Feller
Dick Cavett is playing base ball with Vida Blue. When Bob Feller arrives, he throws the ball at Dick, but Dick catches them all and is given a surprise.
The NNL survived controversies over umpiring, scheduling, and what some perceived as league president Rube Foster's disproportionate influence and favoritism toward his own team. It also outlasted Foster's decline into mental illness in 1926, and its eastern rival, the ECL. In the 1926 Colored World Series, the Chicago American Giants, champions of the Negro National League (1920–1931), beat the Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City, New Jersey, champions of the Eastern Colored League, five games to four. Red Grier of the Bacharach Giants pitched a no-hitter in Game 3
