Mcfarlane Reveals '09 Baseball Figs
Never mind that Major League Baseball’s current season is barely half through, McFarlane Toys is already thinking ahead to next year by announcing its planned starting lineup of MLB Sports Picks figures for 2009.
Scheduled to debut exclusively at Toys 'R' Us in February, the assortment will comprise a six-figure series alongside a pair of 3-packs.
The big leaguers under contract for the series are: Dustin Pedroia (Boston Red Sox); Chipper Jones (version 2, Atlanta Braves); Miguel Cabrera (Detroit Tigers), Melky Cabrera (New York Yankees), Carlos Zambrano (Chicago Cubs) and Justin Upton (Arizona Diamondbacks).
In addition to the single-carded figures, Toys 'R' Us will offer a pair of 3-packs: a New York Yankees defensive 3-pack featuring Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez (version 2) and Jorge Posada (version 3); and a Jackie Robinson Day tribute 3-pack featuring likenesses of Jackie Robinson (in Brooklyn Dodgers white), Ken Griffey Jr. (version 3, in Cincinnati uniform) and Robinson Cano in Yankees attire, all sporting Robinson’s famed No. 42.
Concurrent with those figures’ release, McFarlane will unveil the Series 6 assortment of its Coopertown line.

Was Jackie Robinson the first African American in Major League Sports?
Was Jackie Robinson the first African American athlete to play in any Major League?
I know he was the first in MLB. But in all of the Major Leagues was he the one who opened the doors for black athletes?
No. Of the four major sports, pro football was the first to integrate in 1920. Baseball was second with Jackie Robinson starting the influx of black players. The NBA integrated in 1950 and the NHL took until 1958 to welcome its first black hockey player.
Also, Jackie Robinson was not the first black man in professional baseball either. That distiction belongs to Moses Fleetwood Walker, who played catcher for Toledo of the American Association in 1884. It would, however, be 63 years before Jackie Robinson kicked down the doors for good.
