Jerry Hairston Jr. joins the show to dive deep on Jackie Robinson the player and the man. Hairston's grandfather played in the Negro Leagues before being the ninth Black player to join Major League Baseball. Plus he adds that Mookie Betts could play point guard for the Lakers today!

We open another deck of cards from Topps for "It's In The Cards" including a story of Kenley Jansen behind the plate instead of on the mound. 

Jackson Holliday had his first Major League hit and we award Andrew McCutchen with our very first GameChanger of the Week.
