It is impossible to tell the story of Jackie Robison and his impact on the game of baseball without a good deal of time being spent on both Eddie Stanky and Pee Wee Reese. It was the friendship and determination of these two men that cemented the place of Robinson in the game. Stanky was the man who came to Robinson's side when Phillies manager Ben Chapman was hurling racial insults at him, and Reese is the man who put his arm around Jackie on his first road trip to the South. Here are the three men, united for an old timers game, but already joined in history forever! This is a unique image that has never been offered before and represents a new discovery in the hobby!
