Looks like Jackie Robinson Day will be an annual thing

[stevejrogers]

More tributes for Jackie planned this year

Heh, I forget if it was in 1998 or 1988 but I remember some article where IIRC Don Newcombe was slightly irked that Robinson's debut was just getting the full treatment at the major milestone years (5th and 10th anniversaries) and essentially mentions in the media the other years.

I guess wearing 42 for a day can get a yearly tribute thing accomplished!
