Pop Lloud gets his day
When you think about the great black athletes in baseball today
U would be almost Uke trying to picture the Phillies without
Garry Maddox or Bake McBride in their National League East
stretch drive. Qr the Reds without George Foster, Joe Morgan and
Ken Griffey. Or the Red Sox without Jim Rice and George Scott. Or
the Twins without Rod Carew and Larry Hisle.
The list would be endless. And that must have been the way it
was in the days when Negro Baseball Leagues flourished in
America: The days when Josh Gibson, SatcheU Paige and John
Henry Lloyd, among many others, were not given the chance to
test their talents against Babe Ruth, Graver Cleveland Alexander
and Honus Wagner. . ; ••• .
In an effort to make up for its segregated past, baseball formed a
committee a few years ago to add some members of the Negro
leagues to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. This year
the mductees included a man that some think might have been the
greatest shortstop of all time. In fact, one Chicago sportswirter of
that day said that Pop Lloyd was the most talentedplayer in the
world, including the great Ruth. v .
From his first season, at age 22, with the Cuban X-Gianta to Ms
final season, at age 48, with the Lincoln Giants, Lloyd earned
respect. "He was more than Just a good athlete," Hall of Famer
Monte Irvin told us at the recent induction ceremonies, "he was a
great man. Pop was never too busy to sit and talk with a young
player about baseball. And he was a great teacher. The way I see
Man:
ny sources give Lloyd credit for opening Yankee Stadium to
Negro BasebaU __ in 1930, something that undoubtedly made the giant
aken by Robinson a little bit easier.
Pop finished his playing career with the Bachah Bacharach Giants Git in i
Atlantic City, playing first base and managing. "He was one of my
idols," said Roy CampaneUa at the ceremonies last week. "I was
the bat boy on that Bacharach team and Pop would always explain
everything that was happening on the field. He had a tot to do'witfa
my success in baseball. I am very happy for him today because I
know how proud he would be."
In addition to playing for the Bacharacb Giants, Lloyd was

Lloyd's plaque was accepted in Cooperstown by an old friend,
James Usry. He made an impressive acceptance, quoting some
words iised by Pop on the day Pop LJoyd Stadium wad dedicated.
"I do not consider that I was born at the wrong time," Lloyd bad
said back in 1949, "I felt it was the right time, for I had a chance to
prove the ability of our race hi this sport. And, because many of us
did our very best to uphold the traditions of the game and the world
of sport, we have given the Negro a greater opportunity now to be
accepted into the major leagues with other Americans."
There should be no doubt about that. It was the Pop Lloyds and
Jos Gibsons, the talented men who played in the small stadiums for
barely enough money to live on, that paved the way for the Jackie
Robinsons, Hank Aardns, and Joe Morgans, who have added so
much to the sport of baseball.
And they were not bitter men. "Cool Papa" Bell put it best
