A friend of mine has been working on a project to have former baseball player John Donaldson recognized and enshrined in Cooperstown's Baseball Hall of Fame. Right now they are working on a documentary per this link. If you know anyone interested in helping, please let the project participants know.
Personally think Donaldson belongs in the Hall of Fame and will be enshrined. The Donaldson Project has found box scores from over 400 career wins. A true baseball pioneer.

Interesting, when I first seen the post, I thought it was about the Toronto 3B.

Documentary is free during Black History month. It's 1.5 hours, but a great story.
