I just had this article published today about former Pittsburgh Crawford, Cleveland Buckeye and Newark Eagle Ted Toles Jr. for the Plain Dealer and cleveland.com for the end of Black History Month. Much of the story is about Mr. Toles’ best memories of his playing days, but it also talks about how fewer and fewer living Negro Leaguers remain and the passing of their legacies.
