Jackie Robinson: I'm supposed to let this go on?

Jackie Robinson: And not a damn thing I can do about it.
Branch Rickey: Of course there is! You can stand up and hit! You can get on base and you can score! You can win this game for us! We need you! Everyone needs you.
[the players are moving above]
Jackie Robinson: They're taking the field.
Branch Rickey: Who's playing first?
Jackie Robinson: [beat] I'm gonna need a new bat.
