Re: 2008 List of players wearing 42

the entire Cardinal team was wearing #42

if im not mistaken, the Brewers team was as well.

Of the Brewers, I'm pretty sure Fielder was the only one on the team that elected to wear the Jackie Robinson number 42 jersey.

Re: 2008 List of players wearing 42

I was watching the royals game(local channel) and I swore they said most teams had 4 players each wearing #42, was that not right? I do know the whole royals team wasnt wearing 42. The ones I can remember for sure were Jose Guillen(which, for now, was a waste of money I need to add) and manager Trey Hillman.

All of the Oakland Athletics wore them (with no name plate on their backs) from the White Sox Nick Swisher is the only person who I remember wearing 42 (also with no name plate on the back)

Re: 2008 List of players wearing 42

I just came back from the A's game. They auctioned off on their weekend auction a Mike Sweeny game used #42 jersey from this year. I thought MLB was supposed to be auctioning these off to help the Jackie Robinson charity? Maybe its up to the teams?
