Great to hear @MikeFrancesa on @Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski’s gem: “Quickly, quickly moving to incredibly luminary status… This is one of the best games pitched in the last 50 years. This is probably the best game pitched in this century.” @FrancesaPodcast#MLB

Today we honor the legacy of Jackie Robinson, who debuted with the Brooklyn Dodgers OTD in 1947.
We celebrate his courage and determination, his brilliance on the baseball diamond, and his grace and dignity beyond the playing field.
Jackie’s influence has spanned the generations. From the legends who followed, to the current greats, and the stars of tomorrow. We are all grateful for all he gave to our game. #Jackie42
