No one can ever live up to what he did. Incredible player but so much more than that. The man had to have metal in his hat because fans would throw things at him. He is a true American hero.
soo sad that he had to endure them type of things. imagine how much better he would have been if he felt comfortable even around his own teammates. like you said a legit American Hero man is as tough as they come mentally and physically.
He took in the gate the racism he would be called nigger and dirty low life man. Would have fans boo at him would have the baseball guards make him leave the filled mid game would have to go to separate restaurants and hotels than his teammates would have death threats thrown at his family and would have his own teammates treat him like trash and he took on all the hate for us to have guys like Barry bonds
History day today April 15th 2022 for baseball, 75 years What a person Jackie who has done a lot of things more than just for baseball he changed our life’s forever
so sad that jackie had to fight and get beat and criticized and get called racist names just to get in the team just so unbelievably sick rip jackie robinson i will tell my future kids about you. we miss you.
There will always be intolerant bigots in the world but listening to how his story played out you'd think everyone was that way.. it was just a select few.. he went through hell to achieve the highest level, no doubt, but he was beloved by his hometown and commentators always respected him.. even back then it was known to be wrong to judge him by his skin. Listen to the play by play announcements.. nothing but admiration.. only the same percentage of bigots existed back then as today.. they were just louder back then cause they could get away with it. Most people loved him
Easier to say that outside looking in man “it was only a few.” You have NO IDEA how difficult it was for him. He worried about himself and his family safety ALL TIME TIME. He got death threats constantly. It was only his PLAY and character that got folks to maybe not be SO hard on him. But it was SO DIFFICULT man you can’t imagine the pressure this man was under to succeed.

Socially yes but i think think of more legendary players in baseball

United States army vet too
this the true goat of baseball. man went thru things no other player did and still competed at the highest of levels. nothing but respect!
it’s sad what he had to go through just to get in his team.
He isn't the greatest ever. Lol. He's very good though. He was probably the best 2nd baseman in baseball at his time.
Absolute G. Nothing but respect
Just watched the movie “42” brought me here
Same

How have you never heard of Jackie Robinson?
@@werdyrodriguez8411 the nigga played in the 40's-50's.
@@_SayitAintSo but he’s a historic figure not just a baseball player first black personality in the mlb and was terrorized for it cuh
*person
@@Justjkeys I know. But just because he's the first black major league baseball player and was terrorized for it don't mean everybody gon know him
Jackie is a beast in baseball
Willie mays was better.
@@faamanatugaleleasapai4260cough cough “Bo Jackson”
@@faamanatugaleleasapai4260I Agree, but how is that relevant? No need to compare them. Both are amazing players.
Damn he's pretty quick with his feet!
R.I.P. Jackie Robinson 1919-1972
0:30 damn how he didn’t catch that
He literally said he lost it cuz the sun
En estos tiempos an echo del béisbol un desmadre y muy rentable en esos tiempos casi no usaban gusnteletas. Muñeqeras payasadas en los pómulos.
Самый лучший бейсболист 20 века.

Jackie Robinson is a true black leader he delt with so much when racism was bad
