摘要

在美国职业棒球大联盟（MLB）最初合并后，各支球队以不同的速度引进黑人球员。我们考察了团队绩效是否以及在多大程度上影响了集成的传播率。我们的理论模型预测，中等人才的团队将以最快的速度整合。我们使用MLB整合前二十年的数据证实了这一预测。然而，我们发现，人才/表现的差异可以解释融合的传播程度相对较小，这表明竞争性竞争（正如我们所衡量的）并不是美国职棒大联盟融合速度的主要驱动力。

The Spread of Integration in Major League Baseball

After the initial integration of Major League Baseball (MLB), teams introduced black players at different rates. We examine whether, and to what extent, team performance affected the rate of spread of integration. Our theoretical model predicts that teams of moderate talent will integrate fastest. We confirm this prediction using data from the first twenty years of MLB integration. However we show that relatively little of the spread of integration can be explained by differences in talent/performance, suggesting that competitive rivalry (as we measure it) was not the primary driver of the pace of integration in MLB.
