Congratulations to Alvin Jackson, former Major League great from Wiley College who will be throwing out the first pitch at the New York Mets “Jackie Robinson Day” game on April 15th, 2015. This marks a celebration around the league of Jackie Robinson’s introduction to Major League Baseball.
Thanks to Al’s son Barry Jackson (former star in the 1980s of the now-defunct Howard University baseball team) for providing this news to us. By the way… let’s bring baseball back to Howard University, PLEASE.
