Jimmy Wynn hit 291 career home runs. For some reason, I'm never completely comfortable with drawing distinctions between races on these quizzes...maybe it's just me.

Chili Davis hit 350 hrs, Dick Allen 351. They're two I can think of off the top of my head. There may be more...

Bobby Bonilla shouldn't be on here. He's Hispanic. If you include him you need to include all the other Hispanic players who appears black (Ramirez, Ortiz, etc.).

Chili Davis was born in Jamaica. I kept typing in Dick Allen and I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't take it. I don't understand how anyone could miss him. He was one of the most important African American players of the 60's. Jim Wynn would be #40 on this list.

I think you should note that Hispanic players don't count.

Bobby Bonilla is of African descent, and born in the US. In what way is he NOT African-American? PS: A-Rod too

Bonilla is of Puerto Rican decent. His name is Roberto Martin Antonio Bonilla. In NO way is he African-American. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bobby_Bonilla

Bonilla himself was born in the Bronx. I didnt go back to their family histories to determine whether they qualified, just where they were born. I admit I messed up by not including Wynn and Allen.

Hispanic is not a race. There are black and white hispanic people.
