MILWAUKEE, (CBS 58) -- The first organized pro negro leagues teams began play in 1920 and lasted in some form for more than 40 years. A former player who has made his roots in Milwaukee is continuing to do his part to carry the history of the Negro Leagues today and beyond.
On CBS 58 Sunday Morning, Darius Joshua caught up with Negro League legend Dennis Biddle to see how he's continuing his mission to preserve that history.
