Historian Phil Dixon on the Legacy of Negro Leagues Players and Manager Buck O'Neil

'In 2020, Major League Baseball reclassified seven Negro League teams as major league, meaning the statistics of those players will become part of the MLB's official historical record. The recognition is due in no small part to author, historian, and co-founder of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, Phil Dixon, whose most recent book is called, John "Buck" O'Neil: The Rookie, His Words, His Voice. Dixon joins to discuss the legacy of O'Neil as a player and manager in the Negro Leagues, and the importance of preserving the history of Black baseball.'
