Kendrick Gomez, 10, stands before a display honoring Jackie Robinson, the first black player to play in MLB, Friday, July 9, 2021, during the opening day of Play Ball Park at the Colorado Convention Center as part of the MLB All Star Game celebration. Gomez wears Robinson’s jersey number 42 on his baseball jersey. His father made him learn about Robinson and his role in baseball history before he could wear “42.” Gomez said it was “hard to believe” he was standing in front of Robinson’s jersey. The number 42 is retired in Major League Baseball in Robinson’s honor. (The Gazette, Christian Murdock)
