The Pittsburgh Keystones were members of the first black baseball league, the League of Colored Baseball Clubs in 1887, but the league only lasted a week. In 1922 another team from Pittsburgh, PA used the name when playing in the Negro National League and went 16-21. 1B Jess Barbour led the club with a .391 mark.
