On September 1, 1971, the Pittsburgh Pirates became the first team in Major League Baseball history to field an all-minority line-up. While the significance of the moment went largely overlooked at game time (commentators didn't notice history being made until the third inning), the historic occasion came nearly 24 years after Jackie Robinson first broke baseball’s color barrier. This t-shirt design commemorates the pivotal moment in baseball history.
