House votes to honor Doby with Congressional Gold Medal
House approves a bill to award baseball pioneer Larry Doby the Congressional Gold Medal. Doby broke the color line in the American League with the Indians in 1947 and won a World Series, yet he has not received full historical recognition. Senators and lawmakers including Cory Booker and Lindsey Graham back the measure as a bipartisan tribute to his legacy.
