WBC Disrespects Jackie Robinson

As you know, the world will end if a baseball player ever again wears #42 in the majors.  How better to let players honor those who came before by taking his number out of circulation.....

 

...except in the WBC

 

Hawkins, LaTroy

42

Houston Astros

R/R

6'5"

215lbs

12/21/1972

The World Baseball Classic clearly doesn't honor the legacy of Jackie Robinson.  Let's now collectively shame them into taking away LaTroy's number.

 

Even more amazing is that someone thinks LaTroy is one of the best American baseball players.
