Actually that had crossed my mind. There aren't many blacks in some particular non-baseball professions, like geology and veterinary science, and no one seems to know why this is either. The doors to those fields are certainly open to them, but they just don't seem to be walking in much.

But the next obvious question is why wouldn't a black guy want to be a pitcher or a geologist or a vet? (And is asking these questions somehow racist?)

If you're playing pre-1947 American baseball, then the All-American Mod (a namefiles/ethnicites/nation/cities file pack) is for you.
