Josh Gibson, the “Black Babe Ruth,” is buried in Allegheny Cemetery with a headstone about the size of a legal pad. He’s buried an infield fly from Gus Greenlee’s grave, which is big and loud and elaborate, just like Greenlee. Why hasn’t anyone in Pittsburgh thought it fit to name a street or build a monument to the greatest home run hitter in Negro Leagues history?

so up in the Hill there’s a baseball field named for Gibson, but I ran Google searches for “Josh Gibson Bridge,” “Josh GIbson Street” and “Josh Gibson Avenue” and nothing comes up, for Pittsburgh or anywhere.

I am new to the area and other than the baseball field named for him, I hadn’t seen anything either. Unfortunate…
