This is the story of two men who changed America by changing the world of baseball. In 1945, Branch Rickey, owner of the Brooklyn Dodgers, signed Jackie Robinson to the team. Facing racism from every side, Robinson’s courage and talent won over fans and his teammates. Fox TV said, “It will make you believe in heroes again.”
