    Athletics' Lawrence Butler excited to wear Jackie Robinson's '42'

    Lawrence Butler will shed his usual jersey for No. 42 Monday night when the Athletics begin a three-game series against the St. Louis Cardinals. As the lone African-American player on the A's roster, wearing Jackie Robinson's number means something to the 23-year-old right fielder. Every year on April 15 since 2004, players and coaches from all teams wear No. 42 to commemorate the day Robinson broke the Major League Baseball color barrier with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947. “It will mean a lot,” Butler said before the A's closed out a three-game series Sunday with a 7-6 win against Washington.
