What team did Satchel Paige play for and what position did he play?
Cleveland Indians. He was the oldest rookie ever to play major league ball.

It certainly is possible that one of the teams he barnstormed with made its way through Salina, but I have found no reference of Satchel Paige to Salina. He played for the Salina Blue Jays for awhile. No question about it. Could also be called the Etherington Blue Jays as the name was changed.

No. In the modern era, Jackie Robinson was the first African American to play in the Major Leagues.
