#42 is retired by the the MLB April 15th 1997 in honor of Jackie Robinson. However they do alow a player from each team to wear his number once year on April 15th. In 2009 the cubs allowed every player to wear number 42 in honor of the Jackie Robinson and every thing he has done for the game of Baseball.
