The Death of Baseball - Part 2 (The New Color Barrier)
Author:

In his new book, hall of fame baseball player, Dave Winfield uses similar observations to my Death of Baseball article combined with interesting statistics to point out how baseball is facing a New Color Barrier as the participation of African-American's is rapidly declining and that at its current pace a 12 year old African-American today could be the last African-American to play baseball.
The great thing about Dave is that he takes the book one step further in suggesting what Major League Baseball, MLB Teams, Players and owners as well as communities can do to increase participation (particularly among young African-Americans) in baseball and in the inner-city.
You can read excerpts from an interview with him, about his book, on MSNBC at http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/18787396/site/newsweek/?from=rss. You can also find his book at Dropping the Ball: Baseball's Troubles and How We Can and Must Solve Them .
