He was poetry in motion....such an inspiration to millions of people. And let's not forget about Branch Rickey too, without him we may never have had the honor of seeing Jackie play in the bigs.
Jackie Robinson was also a great half back with UCLA and had the talent to play in the NFL. He shared the back field with Kenny Washinton who was the first black modern NFL player with the Los Angeles Rams.
Firebird, compard to modern players or others at the time, maybe. But I'm PRETTY FUCKING sure that he'd beat you to first. He's a batter, runner, player. If jackie wasn't fast he'd have alot more outs in his record than he does. But he doesn't.
Here for #42 one of my fave ballplayers of all time. My dad was obsessed with him and when I decided to play the game, he sat me down and told me about him and all the greats. Such a damn fine ballplayer and boy was he was he fast.
Just watched the movie 42 after chadwick bosemans death (Chadwick plays jackie in it) and it is really an amazing movie. RIP to both Jackie and Chadwick, they were both legends
This is no wonder every year baseball teams and fans will wear Jackie's number (42) as a special way of saying "Thank you " for all the great things he had done. And now we all know that we should always treat others fairly no matter what, just like Jackie Robinson.
another reason why little kids should look up to him.. notice when he runs he never looks at the ball, never looks at the catcher when he's stealing... always head down haulin ass! That's how its done!
The man who changed baseball for the better.
SMUS16475 Who?

I think he would give billy Hamilton and dee gordon a run for their money. I didn't realise how fast robinson was.
@@firebird_spleen4190 yes tf he was bitch
ain’t no doubt about it

Yeah I know right? He’s just awesome
My dad used to play this song every time we were driving to my game. Biggest inspiration.
Amazing! Was really a quiet spoken man.. yet on the field he was a warrior! Baseball would not be what it is today without this man.
10 years later this would make any baseball player smile!
Robinson rounds third, heading for Home Sweet Home!!

Great song and video!
my favorite player of all time. even tho he was on the Dodgers. but that was back when they didn't piss in our pool 😂😂😂
Never take this off of youtube.
Jackie Robinson changed the game forever!
Lol that catcher at 1:02 was beefin' with that ump, but you can't stop Jackie!
1:02 That catcher loses it LOL
Jeremy Almquist that’s what happens when you steal home
I can only imagine what he was saying lmfao bad times
Can i get your permission to use some footage from this film for a student film. Your youtube channel will be credited
another reason why little kids should look up to him.. notice when he runs he never looks at the ball, never looks at the catcher when he's stealing... always head down haulin ass! That's how its done!
Damn Jackie hit the hell out of that player. Im thinking its bc he played football
great player... go Jackie go...
This loud azz music tho
Damn, he was fine
Wow they didnt have baseball helmets back then
UCLA alumni, so proud of him!
he was fast!
It looked so much cooler on the movie
Not gonna lie, but the pace is real
1:02 I can only imagine what the catcher was saying lmfao oof
That catcher was yogi Berra and he was yelling at the umpire for calling Robinson safe cuz he thought he got jakie out
Nicholas Vargas yeah I know he was just going extra crazy and probably was being a little racist let’s be honest
Yes yes Jackie hit that ball
He died of a Heart Attack cause I research him for Black History Month
Just saw the movie about him
Damn he fast
Music?
