Which excerpt from I Never Had It Made best shows that the reader is seeing the story from Jackie Robinson’s point of view? Mr. Rickey took the manager aside and said he would move the entire team to another hotel unless the black athlete was accepted. Councilman Isadore Muchneck threatened to push a bill through banning Sunday baseball unless the Red Sox hired black players. Incidents like this made Wendell Smith as cynical as we were.
