    African-American MLB Pitchers

    Hey guys, a pretty random question, but could we put together a list of African-American pitchers in the big leagues? There aren't many, and only a couple of good ones, and I wanted to see if I had them all. (creating a team in MLB the show). Anyway, thanks for your help.

    I meant African Americans. Only C.C. is American there. The others are black hispanic from South and Central America. I only came up with 5 starters : Price, Archer, C.c. , Stroman, and Jerome Williams. Anymore starters? Relievers are scarce too....

    Regarding which one? As I said Guthrie is not too dark do he may not qualify. Rest is quite dark.

    Afro-American peoples of the Americas is used to refer to people born in the Americas who have African ancestors.
