  1. Jackie is an example of good triumphing over evil, love superseding hate, and that perseverance is stronger than violence. I believe that is his lasting legacy.

  2. Lmao after they visited the White House… the very same people who are trying to erase his legacy… GTFOH

  3. I don’t like how they’re doing this. Also, I’m under the impression some fans don’t give a single fuck about this guy. A hello kitty giveaway is more celebrated than Jackie Robinson.. this is insanity

  4. Actions speak louder than words. We should have never gone to the White House.

  5. They’re so cowed that in their post they don’t even acknowledge what made him a national icon. What a sad state of affairs.

  6. How do you celebrate this great man yet bend the knee to the POS that wants to erase him. Jackie and Clemente are being erased. Who’s next? Mays and Aaron?

  7. This is the first time ever I’ve felt okay if we don’t make it to the World Series. That White House visit was a gut punch.

    That being said, there was no way in hell Ohtani, arguably Japan’s #1 diplomat, was not going to show up at the White House given the tariff nonsense. They had to go out of solidarity…. At least that’s what I’m telling myself to feel better.

  8. They’re getting roasted in the comments for their hypocrisy and cowardice. This was not the ring we wanted them to kiss.

  9. …by going to the White House and kee kee keeing it up with the person trying to erase his memory.

  10. It’s a good day to rewatch 42 (the movie). Chadwick Boseman + Jackie Robinson’s history. Win-Win!

  11. Honestly if I was at this game I would boo the shit out my boys in blue for this hypocrisy.

  12. If the ownership is shown at the game, they should be HEAVILY booed. They directly went against Jackie’s legacy.

  13. Just a reminder: today is about Jackie Robinson — his legacy, his courage, and his impact on the game and the world. It’s not a day for politics or partisan agendas.

    Using Jackie’s achievements to promote your own political message is disrespectful.

  14. Could’ve made an example of Dumpy at the WH for his “oversight”, but guess just sweeping it under the rug is better?

  15. The owners should not wear a 42 jersey tonight maybe they should wear 47 instead.

  16. Jackie Robinson broke the biggest and most shameful unwritten rule baseball had: Exclusion of non-whtie players from MLB, reflecting the racial segregation that was the norm across this country. He endured daily abuse, not only from fans, but opposing players and coaches. He received constant death threats simply for playing baseball.

    It’s not hard to say what he did and what he had to go through, and you have to wonder why many people avoid saying it.

    We owe it to him to properly remember what he did for all of us.

  17. They did a good job last week siding with the people who would’ve called Jackie slurs and try to bully him out of the sport

  18. I’m just waiting for you guys to start boycotting the team so I can grab some more bobbleheads

  19. The Dodgers went to the white house where they have erased Jackie Robinson, so the organization has failed him.

  20. Yet they went to the White House
    Kinda fucking disgraceful and kind hard to watch games now

  21. People on the post with “what’s the big deal?” Energy have got me wanting to leave this planet.
