The MLB is honoring Hall of Famer Jackie Robinson, the first African American player to compete in the majors in the modern era.
April 15 is now a league-wide dedication to Robinson, and as such, all 30 teams will have their players wear the retired No. 42.
See the sights and hear from players around the league.
