Buck O'Neil Autographed Signed Bat. The players call him Skip, for Buck O'Neil is the captain of the ship that sent more Negro League veterans ashore to the white Majors than any man in baseball history. His crew included such Major League standouts as Ernie Banks, George Altman, Gene Baker, Francisco Herrera, Elston Howard, J.C. Hartman, Connie Johnson, Sweet Lou Johnson, Satchel Paige, Hank Thompson and Bob Thurman. Buck was nicknamed after the co-owner of the semi-pro Miami Giants, Buck O'Neil . He played briefly in 1937 with the Memphis Red Sox, before joining the Kansas City Monarchs for the remainder of his stellar career. Only a two-year tour with the U.S. Navy, 1944-45, interrupted his baseball career.
