Nice topic!
I have often wondered why the AL doesn’t have Larry Doby day while the NL has Jackie Robinson day. Many of the AL cities and markets were not touched directly by Jackie Robinson himself. I’m not diminishing the impact of #42 in any way, his impact transcends sports but the AL was not where Jackie played. On a similar note but admittedly off-topic can we get any recognition for Jackie Robinson’s college teammate Kenny Washington. He was the first African American NFL player and he did that in 1946!!!
