Sunday's Chronicle had a print-only article that made the interesting observation: With the departure of Fred Lewis (along with Randy Winn in the offseason), the Giants' 25-man opening day roster featured no African-Americans for the first time in San Francisco history.
I had not realized that. No doubt it's symptomatic of an overall trend of African-Americans going to other sports in America these days, but it still seems sad.
