Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Who was the first African-American to play major league baseball in 1884?"

...Moses Fleetwood Walker broke through the barrier between black men and major league baseball in 1884. Walker played in the years immediately following the Civil War. He suffered verbal abuse from fans at most games. Walker was a good-field, no-hit catcher. He was born in a way station along the Underground Railroad in 1957. He played several seasons with a minor-league white minor-league team, then joined the American Association with the Toledo Blue Stockings. Segregation at that time was a "gentlemen's agreement" with no state or federal laws to stop a black man from playing. So, Walker integrated the game at age 26. Walker had to quit baseball in 1889 because of racism. Source: MLB.mlb.com
