Andrew "Rube" Foster (September 17, 1879 – December 9, 1930) was an American professional baseball co-founder, player, manager, and executive in the Negro leagues. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1981. Foster is considered by sports historians to have been one of the best pitchers of the 1900s. He is known for founding and managing the Chicago American Giants, one of the most successful black baseball teams of the pre-integration era. Most notably, he founded the Negro National League, the first long-lasting professional league for African-American ballplayers, which operated from 1920 to 1931. He is known as the "father of Black Baseball." Foster adopted his longtime nickname, "Rube", as his official middle name later in life.
