Herb Pennock:
Branch, you've got one helluva hair across your ass on this thing and I, for one, would like to know what you're trying to prove?
Branch Rickey:
Do you think God likes baseball? I do.
Herb Pennock:
What the hell does that mean?
Branch Rickey:
It means you're going to meet God one day, Herb, and when he inquires why Robinson wasn't on the field in Philadelphia and you answer because he was a Negro, it may not be a sufficient reply.

...in case you forgot.
You've had a hell of a hair across your ass
over this for a long time.
I'd like to know
what it is you're trying to prove.
You think God likes baseball, Herb?
What...? What the hell
is that supposed to mean?
It means someday
you're gonna meet God...
...and when he inquires
as why you didn't take the field...
...against Robinson in Philadelphia...
...and you answer
that it's because he was a Negro...
...it may not be a sufficient reply!
Okay, guys, we got 20 minutes to check in
and get to Shibe, so chop-chop!
Hey!
Hey. Out.
And get that bus out of here.
Oh, no, no, no, we have reservations.
We're the Dodgers.
No, your team is not welcome here. Not
while you have ball club Negroes with you.
You just mean that Robinson can't stay,
right?
No, I mean your entire team
has been refused.
- We've been staying here for 10 years.
- And you can stay away that long too.
Hold on. Now, wait,
we should talk about this.
