Box Score of the Week

With yesterday being "Jackie Robinson Day" across Major League Baseball, I'm featuring a game from his illustrious 10-year big league career. It was his Brooklyn Dodgers taking on the St. Louis Cardinals in 1948.

------------------------------------

In the illustrious 135-year history of the  Brooklyn Atlantics / Brooklyn Grays / Brooklyn Bridegrooms / Brooklyn Superbas / Brooklyn Robins / Brooklyn Dodgers / Los Angeles Dodgers franchise, only 10 different players have hit for the cycle. Jackie Robinson did so in the 1948 game I've referenced here.
