Any idea what the Astros are doing with their Jackie Robinson Jerseys?

I have not been the the ball park since opening day. Anyone know what they are doing with them? I signed up to be on Mike Acosta email list but have not recieved one yet. FYI he is the Astros Authentics manager.

Re: Any idea what the Astros are doing with their Jackie Robinson Jerseys?

I talked to Mike Acosta last thursday. He said the Jackie Robinson jerseys will not be sold in the Astros Authentics store and will not be on astros.com or mlb.com auctions. He said they will be used for auctions at the stadium/other events (wife gala, golf tourneys, etc) to benefit astros in action. The events will be held throughout the year with only a few jerseys being sold at each event. Hope this helps, I was sad to hear the news as I only get to Houston a couple of times a year.
