There were fifty-three ballplayers from Negro League
baseball that made it to the Major Leagues.
The last was Henry Mason who pitched for the Kansas City Monarchs from
1951 -1953 and was sold to the Philadelphia Phillies the next year. Mason did not make his Major League debut in
a Phillies uniform until 1958. In his
only 2 big league seasons (1958, 1960), Mason pitched in four games (10.2
innings) with seven walks, six strikeouts, and a 0 – 0 record.
