The Los Angeles Dodgers were in the right place at the right time on Jackie Robinson Day this year.
Thanks to their home schedule, the team got the chance to collectively wear No. 42 and gather at the icon’s statue pregame, prepared to send a message.
On Thursday, Mookie Betts, Dave Roberts and David Price all took the message one step further, and when the final pitch was thrown, it was Price who reaped the rewards for his teammates.
