Tasty Mystery Baskets of Clips

Go on, let me talk to my first baseman.
I'm gonna sit your manager, Branch.
It takes a team.
...Jackie Robinson and the Brooklyn Dodgers are doing exactly that.
A request came in.
I guess I can live with the change.
"We must remember that all this country's enemies...
Little white boy pretending he is a black man.
It doesn't say how big you are or what religion you follow.
The flags of freedom fly over Europe.
- Get out of here! Get out! - Come on, Rickey, let him finish the story!
Okay.
Go, Jackie.
- I was sleeping good. - Down in the kitchen?
Understand?
You're getting close now, and the closer you get, the worse they'll be.
...but he's coming.
"Okay, skipper. I'm a-gitting, I'm a-gitting, I'm a-gitting.
My brother look happy?
Come on, Spider, bring him in. Let's go.
My foot was on the inside of the bag, he was out, but he kept coming.
You show him, Jackie!
Jane Ann, are you out there?
Therefore...
There are more coming right behind him every day...
Sit down. You sit down or I sit you down.
But sleep you can get when you're in your casket, and flowers look great on top of it.
I'm sure it's got a lot to say about a lot. Good night.
Now batting for Montreal, number 9, Jackie Robinson.
Okay.
ne grotth
Hey, nigger! I'm talking to you!
Oh, and that's a deep fly ball to left.
Only on yourself, apparently.
Ooh.
- Y'all sure about this? - You wanna play ball with a nigger?
And here comes the pitch.
Uh, he'd like his photo taken with you.
Well, it's like this:
I'll send you back to Schmeling and Goering...
Thank you, Jackie.
And think about this when your heads hit the pillows tonight.
Did my gram look happy?
- No. Get me up. - No, lay down, man. You're staying.
Did I say something funny?
- Why is that? - That is the rule!
Come on in.
Huh?
Okay, guys, we got 20 minutes to check in and get to Shibe, so chop-chop!
...we'll try you down here...
Your enemy will be out in force...
I thought you knew.
Rae...
I bet he wishes he wasn't leading the League in hit by pitch.
Good, Happy. What can I do for you?
So let's get out there and beat those, uh... Who are we playing?
Then I will accommodate you.
This'll be your home when Jackie has to travel.
He said more men were coming.
I think I might be sick.
Of course there is!
Well, we got a petition going on, Stank.
That's not exactly a headline.
For those of you just tuning in, how did we get here?
Nice job, boys!
Eight times in the Bible we're told to love our neighbor as ourself.
Roses and sleep are two wonderful things, Burt.
Ostermueller looking in for the sign.
Hey, look at this.
Ed! You stay where I can see you.
Why are you doing this?
Ememen
Oh, ho, ho, doctor!
This a white man's game.
Ayy Nigra
Play ball!
They returned home from fighting to free the world from tyranny...
We ain't having no Nigrae mix with white boys in this town.
Hey. Out.
What's the problem, Stank?
Here's the windup. And...
Mr. Rickey will be happy to make other arrangements for you.
I'm Hermanski. Welcome to Brooklyn.
How about I just catch up with you later?
A Jew probably wrote that.
The Nigra ballplayer.
Otherwise, Robinson will spend the year back in Montreal."
Nigger! We don’t want you here
Nigger can't play.
Yes!
...and I can't afford to ruffle their feathers.
I have no choice.
Young Gene Hermanski steps to the plate, playing right today.
With all due respect, sir, have you lost your mind?
Ain't gonna be a next time, Jackie.
.
You tell that to all the little colored boys playing baseball in Florida today.
Trouble, trouble, trouble.
Hell, even your chauffeur.
I got family up there from Louisville.
Branch, it's Herb.
That's right. Been over some solid road together.
Playing ball, ump.
- Hung low. Now there you go.-
Spring training. It's where we work out our differences.
Don't know why.
Get out of here!
I don't like needing someone to be there for me.
That's you, not me.
Get off the field.
Why didn't you say so?
My son says, uh, everybody in...
The series in Cincinnati next week?
Leo Durocher is suspended from baseball for a year.
...so the only thing keeping Robinson off the Dodgers now, plainly...
Don't let them get to you.
Giants, Burt.
"About getting paid." Hear what he said? "it's about getting paid."
What's that?
I have to get down to Daytona.
