Question

what role did japanese american baseball players have in the history of latino baseball? they advocated to keep the major league closed to latino players. they cooperated on making the sport more accessible to all ethnicities. they competed against latinos for limited positions open to minorities.

Explanation:

To determine the role of Japanese American baseball players in Latino baseball history, we analyze each option:

• The first option ("advocated to keep...") is incorrect as it implies exclusion, which is not in line with historical cooperation.
• The second option ("cooperated on making...") aligns with the idea of minority groups in baseball (like Japanese Americans and Latinos) working together to increase accessibility for all ethnicities, as they both faced barriers and often collaborated to break them.
• The third option ("competed against...") is incorrect as the focus was on collaboration rather than competition for limited minority positions.

Answer:

B. They cooperated on making the sport more accessible to all ethnicities.
