Most Valuable Player: Jackie Robinson - Bushnell Children's Theatre
Ebbet’s Field, Brooklyn, New York, 1947. Before a crowd of 26,623 Americans, an African-American baseball player suits up in a Brooklyn Dodgers uniform and takes second base. On that day, despite hisses, walkouts and even death threats, Jackie Robinson heroically breaks the “color” barrier for the National Baseball League and forever changes the world of sports!
