According to an interview with Norman Lumpkin, an outfielder, he was in and out of the Negro Leagues during the 1938-49 period. When he wasn't playing in the Negro Leagues, he was playing on commercial and industrial teams. His Negro League team was the Atlanta Black Crackers. It's possible that he also played for the Birmingham Black Barons. He is shown here as an older man.
