Branch Rickey, president of the Brooklyn Dodgers, most likely chose to sign Jackie Robinson to break the color barrier in Major League Baseball and promote racial integration in the sport. He recognized Robinson's exceptional talent, competitive spirit, and ability to handle the intense scrutiny and pressure that would come with being the first Black player in the league. By signing Robinson, Rickey aimed to both enhance the Dodgers' performance and make a significant social statement during a pivotal time in American history.
