“42″ should be a great movie. A bit of trivia about Branch Rickey. He was a catcher and allowed 11 stolen bases in one game during his playing days. He was much better at being an executive. Red Sox were the last to have a black player 12 years after the debut of Jackie Robinson, when Pumpsie Green was placed on the roster in 1959.
