West Coast Negro Baseball League
The West Coast Negro Baseball League (WCNBL) was a Negro baseball league which operated in 1946. It is considered a minor league as it did not compete for talent with the established Negro National League or Negro American League. By the time the WCNBL was organized, quality black talent was beginning to be siphoned off by white leagues due to Jackie Robinson's breaking of the baseball color line the same year.
