About the Detroit Stars (NLB)
The Detroit Stars were one of the eight charter franchises of the Negro National League when Rube Foster founded it on February 13, 1920. The Stars played at Mack Park in Detroit and served as one of the original NNL's most stable franchises throughout the 1920s. The franchise produced multiple Hall of Famers including Norman "Turkey" Stearnes — who joined the Stars in 1923 and is widely considered the greatest player in Detroit Stars history. Stearnes was elected to the Hall of Fame in 2000.
After Major League Baseball's December 16, 2020 reclassification of the seven Negro Leagues operating between 1920 and 1948 as major leagues, every NLB-era player from this franchise is now an MLB-recognized major leaguer.
