League: Independent Team
Larry Doby was a star with the Newark Eagles of the Negro National League, hitting .301 in 1943. In 1944 Doby joined the service and played on the Black Great Lakes Naval Station team outside Chicago. Although America was fighting fascism abroad, military baseball – like much else – was still a segregated affair, and there were separate white and Black Great Lakes teams. Doby would go on to integrate the American League in 1947. Truman would integrate the United States military in 1948.

Features
Ebbets Field Flannels
Ebbets Field Flannels continues to be run by its original founders, and remains committed to bringing the quality, beauty and craftsmanship of mid-Century American athletic garments to a 21st Century public.
Co-founder Jerry Cohen grew up in Brooklyn, not far from where the fabled stadium once stood in Flatbush. Jerry listened to his father tell stories of the colourful players of another era. He was proud of the fiercely independent neighborhood. And the Brooklyn Dodgers' heritage as the first major league team to integrate professional baseball in 1947, with the addition of Hall-of-Famer Jackie Robinson.
All sizing information is for guide purposes only.
Where possible we provide individual product size guides. If these aren't
available we provide a generic brand size guide. Individual garments may
differ from these measurements and we cannot guarantee the item you receive
will match these measurements exactly.
Many brands also have a level of tolerance in size differences
between the same item - this is usually 0.5 inches.
If no size guide is shown below, it means there is not one available at
present for this item and it will be added if/when it becomes available.
