MLB The Show 24: Negro League Museum President calls game collaboration one of 'most meaningful' achievements in organization's history

MLB The Show 24 will continue its Storylines mode after seeing much success in last year's version of the game. The mode gave players a chance to play as iconic Negro League players and get an inside look at how great they were.

Negro League Baseball President Bob Kendrick could not be happier about the continued collaboration. He joined Front Office Sports to talk about how important the collaboration has been.

Kendrick stated that the game's involvement has drastically increased the attention of the Negro Leagues. And with season two on the way for MLB The Show 24, that attention should only increase.

Seeing the Negro Leagues in a video game is something Kendrick had always hoped for but did not know it was possible. However, the uncertainties quickly disappeared after Sony San Diego called Kendrick three years ago.
