Pride is one of the few African-American country musicians to have had
considerable success in the country music industry and only the second
African American to have been inducted as a member of the Grand Ole
Opry. He has garnered 39 No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot Country Songs
charts. Before fame, Pride was a pitcher for the New York Yankees’ minor
league team.
