Ken Griffey Jr. was the 1st player to where the jersey in honor of Jackie and start this holiday in Baseball.

most important player in pro sports history. love watching old clips of Jackie Robinson. forget who said it, but some announcer once said that he ran as if his hands were on fire and he was trying to put them out.

Great man. Momentous time in history, but irritating trying to make out who's batting with everyone wearing #42.

Dodgers always lead the way... Now we're leading the way with the first female Head athletic trainer in pro sports......
