Heard and read stories about how racist Cap Anson was while refusing to play against black ball players so running into this photo has me scratching my head a little. He is pictured in the center and to his right sitting on the floor is a black child. I know there were mascots sometimes pictured with the team but this child is dressed very nicely and not in any kind of team attire although holding a bat and cap. I would think Anson wouldn't even allow the child in the picture but he's there. Can anyone shed any light at the situation given his history toward black people.
