The primary goal of this event is to bring the legacy of the Negro League into the spotlight, celebrating its profound impact on both the community of Moreno Valley and the history of Major League Baseball. The Negro League is a storied institution whose players showcased exceptional talent, resilience, and skill, paving the way for integration in professional baseball and making strides for civil rights and equality in American sports.
To commemorate this remarkable legacy, a community softball game is set for Saturday, May 31, 2025, from 1-4 PM. This gathering is designed to bring together Moreno Valley’s diverse residents for an afternoon of education, sportsmanship, and community spirit. Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in a lively game of softball while learning about legendary Negro League players, their iconic teams, and the challenges they overcame to reshape baseball history.
Informational displays and booths will share stories of the league’s greatest players, their pivotal moments on and off the field, and the league’s influence on breaking racial barriers in America. Through these narratives, attendees will gain a deeper appreciation for the talents and struggles of Negro League players, such as Satchel Paige, Josh Gibson, and Cool Papa Bell, who set the stage for future generations in Major League Baseball. The event also aims to inspire the youth of Moreno Valley, connecting them with role models whose legacies go beyond sports to impact broader social change.
This unique event will serve not only as a game but as a bridge across generations, honoring the perseverance of past legends while promoting unity, pride, and the joy of baseball among Moreno Valley’s residents.
