The historic photo first served as a learning tool for a local family, and now a nation.
Youngstown native George “Shotgun” Shuba on April 18, 1946, became a part of arguably the most significant photo to begin the integration process in Major League Baseball. Today, Shuba is forever remembered for that groundbreaking moment with Baseball hall of famer Jackie Robinson.
Robinson breaking MLB’s color barrier a year later is touted as one of the most important moments in sports history paving the way for other black athletes across baseball and all other major sports.
George’s son, Mike Shuba of Austintown, said his dad “didn’t think it would be such a big moment like it is today. He always said it was Jackie’s moment, not his. He was used to playing with and against black athletes from high school so it was a normal thing for him to go up and shake Jackie’s hand at the plate.”
