Yes, they were great friends.
Jackie Robinson was treated very bad by the fans and his own team. once the players tried to get rid of him by signing a partition just to kick him out. The coach told him if he just stayed quiet he would make into the major leagues and so he did, when this happened many African Americans came to see Jackie Robinson play.

He was the first pro African American baseball player and even though he was on the team he still was discriminated against. When the team stayed at a hotel or ate at a restaurant he couldn't go there. The white team members treated him with rude and disrespectful comments. Many African Americans who step out and become the first to do something faced the same thing he did. Singer Sammy Davis Jr. in the 1960-70's couldn't stay at the Las Vegas hotel where he was the headline star. He had to stay off the strip.
