Ted Strong Jr.

Trying to decide what to have for dinner tonight? Look no further…

Ted Strong, Jr., not only starred in the Negro Baseball Leagues, but he played with the original Harlem Globetrotters. Here he is (on the right) being profiled with other Globetrotters greats in a 1947 feature in Ebony Magazine…

Just in case…Everyone, stay safe and warm. Big day tomorrow. It’s official. Signed at 6:00am. It was even on TV. Mine really turned blue.

It was great to see another Negro Leagues player receiving recognition. Mr. Dennis Biddle came years after Ted Strong, Jr, but he made his mark in the Negro Leagues by becoming “the man who struck out the Man!” Only those of you who were in attendance in Aurora, IL will know what that means. We want to see more Negro Leagues players get the recognition they most certainly deserve. (Photo credits Rick Guzman and Sherman Jenkins).

Celebrating my 9th year on Facebook. Thank you for your continuing support. We could never have made it without you. 🙏🤗🎉

This is good eating!!!

Larry Lester has been and continues to be a class act since I met him at my first Jerry Malloy Negro League Conference Newark, NJ in 2013. His council and advice carried me to complete the book about the great Negro Leagues Star Ted Strong, Jr. Read this article and you will see why Mr. Larry Lester is the best!
