Happy Chandler
Description:
Happy Chandler, former Baseball Commissioner, was asked in 1987 by Sharon Jones, A's executive at the time and Hall of Famer, Joe Morgan to recall the events which led up to Jackie Robinson's contract being approved by Chandler in 1947. Without Chandler's approval, the 15 owners who voted against Robinson's agreement with the Brooklyn Dodgers, would have prevailed, in keeping Jackie out of major league baseball. This audio is BASEBALL HISTORY.

Lester Rodney Part 1 - Click to Listen
Description:
Lester Rodney is one of the best sportswriters of all time. Beginning in the mid 1930's Rodney was the only baseball writer who continuously urged the powers in baseball to allow Black's to play in the majors. Rodney covered major league baseball for over 25 years on a daily basis. Branch Rickey received much of the national attention for bringing Jackie Robinson to the Dodgers organization in 1946, but without Rodney fanning the flames, the issue wouldn't have been in the public eye. Why hasn't Rodney received more attention for his work? Rodney was the sports editor for "The Daily Worker", the communist paper, causing the historians to overlook his contributions until just recently. I met Rodney this past fall thanks to Irwin Silber, author of "Press Box Red", Rodney's story, and historian Jules Tygiel.
