"Virgil became the first player of African descent to take the field for the Tigers"

If Virgil was Dominican, is this statement accurate? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 23.28.85.119 (talk) 17:08, 7 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Article says: "He was called the first black player for the Tigers, one of the last teams to break the color barrier, though in reality he was their first Latino."

In other words, you're saying that Virgil was formerly the first black player for the Tigers. Well, can we at least agree that he was the Tigers' first person of color? ~2026-26219-82 (talk) 22:51, 16 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
