William "Sonny" Randall

THE BIOGRAPHICAL ENCYCLOPEDIA OF THE NEGRO BASEBALL LEAGUES, by James A. Riley, lists an unknown-first-name Randall, who was an outfielder with the Homestead Grays in 1943. THE NEGRO BASEBALL LEAGUES: A PHOTOGRAPHIC HISTORY, by Phil Dixon, has a photo of William "Sonny" Randall along with two other players. The photo caption says that the three of them "had been members of the Homestead Grays before being drafted and joining the Great Lakes Naval Varsity in 1944." The attached photo shows William "Sonny" Randall in a Great Lakes Naval team uniform in the act of sliding into a base.
