So I thought about it for a while...
Yeah, Jack.
I don't like needing anyone for anything.
Popcorn! Get your popcorn!
No. No. I wish.
Who was that?
...with my typewriter on my knees?
- All right, all right. - Getting stitched up, for Pete's sake.
Inevitable, I suppose.

He's a troublemaker.
You gonna take care of your mama?
On the field.
We're a team. On a hot streak.
Hey, hey! Get used to it, fellas. This how it's gonna be.
Ball!
Way to turn two, Jackie.
We'll have to wait and see what the umpire does...
But when opening day came in 1947, that number dropped to 399...
Whenever we play exhibitions with the Yankees...
Happy, you know very well my organization is entering a tempest.
Y'all gonna spoil him.
You all right, honey?
Give me something.
I'm from Greenwood, Mississippi.
Plan's good, Mr. Rickey. You always have one.
Well...
Oh, I understand.
...with a total of 400 players on their rosters.
You got a strange sense of humor, man.
I'm sick.
How about a picture? You shake hands. Bury the hatchet.
But I'm gonna do it.
Robinson up.
Everyone looked happy. I've never seen so many happy-looking people.
As long as it looks like he's changed.
Ty Cobb got caught plenty.
Hell, come on, boy. You know you can't go in there.
Everybody needs you!
Out!

I don't want him getting it in his head...
Hello?
Hmm, mm-hm.
Robinson got his pitch!
What are you doing? You can dance with him later! Focus on the plate!
Nothing good, nothing bad.
Now you get off the field, or go to jail.
That'll be plenty.
Go play ball.
Slaughter hits a hard ground ball right at Reese, who fires it over to Jack at first.
No.
With the white Brooklyn Dodgers.
Whoa!
...or has stripes like a zebra.
Yes, your temper! What are you, deaf?
No.

All right? They laugh about it.
Now, you know I'm from Kentucky.

Hell of a thing when a man's got good health...
I've just never seen one before.
