 * Strong support per nom, and possibly a Speedy uncontroversial move. We don't typically do "WP:PARTIALDAB / partial primary topics" very often. Thus, "Jim Davis (baseball)" should 100% redirect to the dab page. ...Also, the fact that this the white player is at the "(baseball)" title but the Negro-leagues player is relegated to the "(Negro leagues)" disambiguator, sort-of has the INCREDIBLY UNFORTUNATE accidental side-effect of making it seems like it Wikipedia feels that the white player is the """real""" baseball player — which, while obviously not at all intended, but definitely a horrific consequence. (This could honestly 100% be a Speedy uncontroversial move – it might be wise to move this as soon as possible!) Paintspot Infez (talk) 08:13, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Support this one gets 46 views compared with 10[|Jim_Davis_(Negro_leagues)] for the other, probably not enough for a PADB.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 17:21, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

 * I've been moving "(baseball)" articles when there is more than one baseball player with that name to more specific dabs per Naming conventions (baseball players) #3 for a week or so now, but will not move this article since there is an open RM. This is uncontroversial and should be moved as proposed post-haste.  NB, I moved the Negro league article the other day before I noticed this RM. Rgrds. --Bison X (talk) 21:06, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
