Boston Flannery honors Jackie Robinson, treasures letter from widow
Posted Feb 14, 2026
UNC pitcher Boston Flannery has worn a couple of numbers in his baseball life, but none have ever meant quite as much as No. 42. On Friday at Boshamer Stadium, the junior right-hander finally wore it again, not as a high school kid paying tribute to Jackie Robinson, but as a veteran Tar Heel who has waited for his moment to come back around.
