“Definitely super special,” Betts said of his first Jackie Robinson Day with the Dodgers franchise. “Especially with everything that’s kind of going on now.
“It means so much just to be able to play the game. Everything that he did, obviously huge things, I’ll always remember this Jackie Robinson Day for sure.”This card sold a total 993 copies. Below is what's written on the reverse:
Players around Baseball honored the legend Jackie Robinson by wearing the number "42" on August 28, since the League was unable to carry out the tradition on April 15. On this date 75 years ago, Dodgers president Branch Rickey informed Robinson he would be the face of integration in Baseball. For Andrew McCutchen, among other MLB players, Robinson is an inspiration. "He always stood fot what he believed in. It's come full circle. Ultimately, I feel like that's what we're doing right not."
