Jackie Robinson, George Shuba, and the "handshake of the century"
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2020
- In 1946, when the trailblazing Jackie Robinson hit his first homer for a Dodgers farm team in an otherwise all-White league, one player, George “Shotgun” Shuba, shook his hand - an act that was by turns normal and groundbreaking. Correspondent Susan Spencer talks with sculptor Marc Mellon about his statue honoring that momentous exchange.

What a handsome young man Mr. Robinson was. What a brilliant smile. That sculpture is very well done, a real work of art.
Salute to all of those who stood up on behalf of what was right.
The movie 42 was super good.
2020...i miss shaking hands without being self conscious of the consequence
that handshake is quite quaint
If for nothing else, thanks for showing Robinson's World Series steal of home AND Yogi's furious reaction to the safe call. Never gets old.
It was the correct call. Yogi was wrong. Another camera angle, rarely shown, makes it clear.
Am I imagining it or does that umpire look like he disapproves the handshake?
No it's not your imagination!
There are a few folks like George that make you proud...proud to be part of a better America!
Why no closed captions? Would love to use this for my classes.
This is making me tear up.
1st saw that pic when I was 6 years-old!
Wow!
"It's right things to do"
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!
My dad loved and admired this man. Me? I was too young and had to grow and learn ( or should I say, learn and grow? )
don't forget Branch Rickie is how Jackie got to play in the first African American to play in the all white MLB in the first place !
I know that now too because I watched the movie 42, it was a great movie.
America needs to be better now. It will take all of us. Every shape, creed and color. It's the right thing to do...
Wonder sculpture Marc. Amazing accomplishment! Congratulations.

Herb Washington, a world class sprinter but non baseball player, was hired by Oakland A's owner Charles Finley to be a designated runner for the 1974 season.
In 1974 Herb never batted, but stole 29 bases and scored 29 runs. He had an embarrassing moment in the ninth inning of Game 2 of the 1974 World Series when, as the potential tying run, he was picked off first base by Dodger ace reliever Mike Marshall. (You can see a clip of this on youtube) Nevertheless, he received a World Series ring as the A's defeated the Dodgers by winning four out of five games. Herb was released by the A's the next year and never returned to baseball. In his later life he became a successful businessman.
I wondered what happened to Herb Washington and I'm glad he made it big after baseball
Greatest Moment Jackie Robinson Humanitarian
J.R. was incredibly handsome, the sculpture does not look like J.R at all.
Si pienso igual que tu, nada que ver JR era muy muy guapo.
It's not finished yet.
Interesting to see Gabby Hayes sitting with Rachel Robinson at 4.02. I wonder which ballpark, and I wonder why Gabby was there
THIS HANDSHAKE SYMBOLIZED THAT AMERICA WAS WILLING TO CHANGE , I AM PROUD TO BE A YOUNGSTOWNER JOSEPH NAPIER SR THE NAPE1962 RUclips CHANNEL . POST SCRIPT I HAD CHANCE TO MEET GEORGE ACROSS A LARGE FIELD AT MY WORK PLACE WITH A MUTUAL HAND WAVE IN 2013 .
Willard Brown and Jeff Heath.
For those unfamiliar, Bill James tells a story in his Historical Baseball Abstract that has a less positive reaction of a Caucasian player to his African American teammate's home run. They all can't be feel good stories.
A beautiful story.
George shuba shuba shuba shuba!
Herb Washington has a unique place in baseball history. He was the only full-time pinch-runner. Played in over 100 games and never batted and never played the field. He also never played in the minors.

Jaded looks ? Not what that means. Don’t use words you don’t know.
You can always tell a journalist's politics by the kind of questions they ask.
It must be 2020.
Y’all weird fr why y’all make this more about the white boy like he went through what we go through and I don’t see color Just common sense 👁🖤♟♾️
👁🖤☮️
What a joke. Prove no one else’s wanted to shake his hand. Why not show the video instead of a pic.
What video?
Of his teammates brushing him off after his first homerun. The media just files racism.
The point is, there is no video.
are you serious?? lol. it was in the 1940s...
No sir. You're the joke.
YES!!!... But, don't put it up until after TRUMP 2020, or the BLM will Tear it down.
You're part of the problem not the solution.
do you have any idea what blm does
You're a stain
I'm pretty sure that BLM has more to do than delete posts regarding baseball in 1946. Here is the link to the BLM about page. Take a moment to read it and inform yourself. If you disagree with the mission then you fully know why.

so that didn’t go as plan didn’t it sir
