It was Larry Doby, who made his first appearance with the Cleveland Indians on July 5, 1947, almost three months after Jackie Robinson broke modern Baseball's color barrier in the National League. Doby and Satchel Paige were the first black players to win a world championship, as members of the 1948 Indians team that defeated the Boston Braves in six games.
