Yes
No. But he could have played for the New York Giants in their final season on the East Coast. On Dec. 13, 1956, the Brooklyn Dodgers traded the 36-year-old Robinson to the arch-rival Giants for pitcher Dick Littlefield and $35,000. But Robinson informed the Giants that after 10 seasons in baseball, he had decided to retire.
Eventually he will, as do all actors.
