Explore the courageous activism of Dock Ellis, who fought against racism in baseball and beyond. As a trailblazer in advocating for civil rights, Ellis's bold stance continues to inspire progress towards equality and inclusivity in the sport. #DockEllis #CivilRights #BaseballActivism

I’m at the mid-July game in the #DockEllis League. It’s a meeting of two teams from #Richmond, the Morticians and the Scrappers, who are hosting the West #Philly Waste. A lovely, muddy day at Bill Robinson Playground in the Chimbarazo neighborhood of Richmond. #Baseball #MasodonBaseball
