MLB to honor Jackie Robinson throughout 2019
Jackie Robinson was born a century ago this Jan. 31. To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the birth of one of baseball's most important pioneers, Major League Baseball has planned a yearlong slate of activities in Robinson's honor.
MLB announced Monday that the schedule will begin on Jan. 31 -- with help from Robinson's wife, Rachel, and their daughter, Sharon -- and culminate with the Jackie Robinson Museum's grand opening in December.
