Occurring annually on April 15 in Major League Baseball (MLB), “Jackie Robinson Day” is a traditional event that commemorates and honors the day Jackie Robinson made his major league debut. MLB opening day was April 15 in 1947 and Robinson’s first season in the major leagues.

Celebrated at MLB ballparks, on “Jackie Robinson Day,” all players, coaches and managers on both teams — and the umpires — wear Robinson’s uniform number, 42.
