    The answer is: They feared that white audiences would not pay to watch African American players.

    In the year 1890 the National Association of Base Ball Players rejected blacks from play. The "gentleman's agreement" to ban black teams from the organised leagues for the next 50 years was done to prevent "some division of feeling" that no white audiences would not pay to watch African American players.
