In a tribute to Jackie Robinson, Coco Crisp will wear the number 42 on April the 15th. The 15th will mark the 60th anniversary of Jackie breaking the color barrier. It is a great gesture by Major League Baseball. Crisp will be join that day by players like, Barry Bonds, Ken Griffey, Jr, and the entire Dodgers team among many others. All teams are being given this opportunity and all will take MLB up on it. I love this idea. Robinson not only changed the history of baseball, but had a great impact on America itself. So, kudos to MLB and all of the players that will wear 42 with honor.
