This Day in New York Yankees History 12/2: The League vs. Jackie Robinson

Well it was on this day in 1952 that then Commissioner Ford Frick announced plans to take action against Robinson. Nothing much came of these comments or this plan from Frick so it must have all been simply water under the bridge.
