This Official League baseball is signed and inscribed by Jackie Robinson, one of baseball’s greatest all-time players and most important figures. A 1962 inductee of the National Baseball Hall of Fame, Robinson broke the color barrier in Major League Baseball when he made his big league debut on April 15, 1947. 

Throughout his storied 10-year career with the Brooklyn Dodgers, Robinson was a six-time All-Star (1949–1954) and was named the National League MVP in 1949. That season, Robinson led the MLB in batting average (.342), stolen bases (37) and posted a career-high 124 RBIs. 

In 1955, Robinson led the Brooklyn Dodgers to the franchise’s first World Series title. He retired after the 1956 season.

On April 15, 1997, Major League Baseball universally retired Jackie Robinson’s number 42 across all franchises. Jackie Robinson Day was established in 2004, and by 2009, every player, coach and umpire began wearing the number 42 on that day.
