Can diagnosed color blind people succeed in baseball?

Sorry, have to bump this since I didn't get any replies yesterday.

I have red-green color blindness (which includes the blue-purple issue). I can't think of any way it would impact playing baseball. It can be difficult in other fast paced team sports if you're trying to pass a ball or puck to a teammate and the uniforms aren't clearly white vs color. I can't think of a baseball play where I would have that problem. Sometimes I can't read the scoreboard if the lights don't contrast enough with the background, but players shouldn't trust the scoreboard anyway. 

My son is colorblind and currently playing D1.  

Thank you BBALLFAN!  That's the kind of answer I was really hoping to get! By any chance do you think it assists him in any way?  And what position does he primarily play?

And thank you midatlantic dad for being the first to finally throw me a bone!

I think such a small percentage of the population is color blind (8% men/.5% women) and when you add that to the percent of those that play ball, there just aren't that many 'colorblind baseball players'.

I only know one person that is colorblind.  He was a good rec league basketball and high school volley ball player.

(I am interested in the whole eye/vision/acuity process with perception.)  Interesting topic.
