Black History Month: Sporting KC players visit Negro Leagues Baseball Museum

At the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City, Missouri, America’s pastime is on vibrant display, albeit through a different lens.

Located in the historic 18th and Vine District, the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum pays homage to the hundreds of Black baseball players who led a defining cultural movement from the 1920s to the 1950s. Featuring a wealth of interactive exhibits, informative placards and treasured artifacts, the museum has served as a crown jewel of American history in Kansas City.

On Thursday, several Sporting Kansas City players paid a visit to the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum as part of a teamwide celebration of Black History Month.
