MLB is white as white can be? Look again.
62% of MLB players are white, compared to 84% in the NHL.
MLB is one of the most diverse sports although I agree people don't watch for sake of diversity.
I guess it's also debatable how popular MLB is, but IMO it is doing a good job of appealing to a broad cross section of the population.
