Robert Peterson, author of the landmark book, 'Only the Ball was White', passed away on the 11th of February.
The book was invaluable in aiding the Hall of Fame induction of several great Negro Leagues players specifically the immortal Satchel Paige.
There are fewer and fewer surviving links to the Negro Leagues.
