Joe's big break came in 1952 when he signed with the Brooklyn Dodgers. He was an instant success, finishing the season with a record of 15-4 and an ERA of 2.15. But it was in the World Series that he cemented his place in baseball history. Joe was called upon to pitch in the decisive Game 1 against the New York Yankees, and he helped lead the Dodgers to a 4-2 victory. Joe's victory was significant not only because it was the first time an African-American pitcher had ever won a World Series game, but also because it helped break down the color barrier in baseball.In total, we tracked 716 items since 01/01/2008.
