One year earlier, as a member of the Triple-A Montreal Royals, rookie hitter Jackie Robinson played at City Island’s ballpark against an all-white team. This was a first in professional baseball since the 1800s and set the stage for his historic Major League debut in 1947. https://t.co/IWNJiXss1s — PolitiTweet.org

Today, we remember the contributions and legacy of Jackie Robinson, who transformed professional sports 75 years ago when he stepped onto Ebbets Field in Brooklyn and integrated Major League Baseball. Portrait courtesy of @smithsoniannpg https://t.co/84pMVAVPka — PolitiTweet.org

City Island Ball Park was renamed the Jackie Robinson Ball Park in 1990 in honor of Robinson’s debut on the field. It was listed in the @NatlParkService National Register of Historic Places in 1998 to protect and preserve it so people can learn and appreciate its history. https://t.co/TVwEpes6E8 — PolitiTweet.org
