1. This famous Jackie was the first African American to play in Major League Baseball in 1947. What was his surname?

Answer: Robinson

Jackie Robinson was a baseball second baseman who became the first African American to play in the MLB. He broke the baseball colour line in 1947 when the he started on first base in April 1947 for the Brooklyn Dodgers. Until then racial segregation in baseball meant that African-American players could only play in the Negro Leagues since 1880.

However, this inauspicious first was not the only reason Robinson was revered; he was an extremely talented baseball player: recipient of the first MLB Rookie of the Year Award in 1947, played as an All-Star from 1949 to 1954, and won the National League Most Valuable Player Award in 1949. This was the first time an African-American first black player had won this award. Robinson played in six World Series culminating in the Dodgers' 1955 World Series championship.

In 1962 Robinson was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. He died prematurely in 1972 from heart and diabetes complications.
