from Black Diamonds · host Bob kendrick, Ramone Russell, Darnea Samuels

Imagine, stepping into the shoes of Satchel Paige to face Josh Gibson in the 1942 Negro Leagues World Series. With the bases loaded. And with every fielder on your side kneeling around the pitcher's mound.   Starting this week, you can. Bob Kendrick sits down with Sony's Ramone Russell to tell the story of how the two of them have brought the Negro Leagues to life in this year's edition of MLB: The Show, and why it's already bringing baseball history, and American history, to a new generation like never before. Hear how the stadiums, the crowds, the uniforms, the windups, the swings, the slides, and most importantly, the stories were all recreated in living color, and how it all amounts to the most exciting year in the history of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum. Follow Bob Kendrick on Twitter - @nlbmprezFollow Ramone Russell on Twitter - @Ramone_RussellTo support the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, and preserve the legacy of Buck O'Neil, please visit ThanksAMillionBuck.comVisit the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City - NLBM.com Follow Bob Kendrick on Twitter/X - @nlbmprez Follow Bob Kendrick on Instagram - @nlbmprez To support the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, please visit Donate | Negro Leagues Baseball Museum Visit the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City - NLBM.com See and Support the Dream of the NEW Negro Leagues Baseball Museum - Pitch for the Future Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
