Notes
^ Stephens, Ken (May 28, 1989). "Baseball's lack of blacks: faster sports, inner-city troubles steer them away from game". The Dallas Morning News . Sports Day section, page 1B. Murray, a senior at Dallas' W.T. White High School, will attend the University of Texas next fall on a baseball scholarship. But Murray, ranked the nation's No. 7 prospect by Baseball America, likely will be a high pick in the major league draft June 5.
