History: While many Negro League clubs took their nicknames from their local white counterparts, the Black Crackers taking theirs from the Southern Association’s all-white Atlanta Crackers led to one of the oddest team names in baseball history. Both clubs shared Atlanta’s famed Ponce de Leon Park, where during the 1940 season the legendary Satchel Paige appeared in two games for the Black Crackers.

History: Playing most of their history in the Negro National League, the Cubans frequently boasted as many foreign players as any ballclub in the United States. In 1941, the Cubans featured Perucho Cepeda, father of Hall of Fame San Francisco Giants first baseman Orlando Cepeda. The most famous player in Cubans history, however, was Martin Dihigo, the only ballplayer ever to be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fames in the United States, Cuba, Mexico, Venezuela, and the Dominican Republic.
