Jackie's First Card--in Color

Jackie Robinson 75th anniversary hollow with MLB's lack of progress

More than a year before Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier in baseball, there was another seismic moment in sports history. On March 21, 1946, former UCLA running back Kenny Washington--a teammate of Robinson's in college--signed a contract with the L.A. Rams, ending a long period in which African-American players were banned from league play.
