Arthur Lee Wilson (October 28, 1920 – October 31, 2010) was a professional baseball player. He was an all-star for the Birmingham Black Barons of Negro league baseball before playing part of one season in Major League Baseball for the New York Giants in 1951. He was born in Springville, Alabama. Wilson is recognized as the last player in the Negro leagues to hit .400, having batted .435 (some records say .437) in 1948, albeit in only 28 games played that season.[1][2]
