Jackie Robinson is a baseball legend, and the path to immortality began with the Montreal Royals. It was there he got his first taste of professional baseball and the city adored him.
He described his time in Montreal as living in paradise.

10.12.2025 16:11 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0A hockey goalie in an orange, white, and black Philadelphia Flyers jersey with "HEXTALL" and number 27 on the back crouches in front of the net on the ice, holding his stick out horizontally with both hands in a ready stance. He wears brown leg pads, a white mask, and blocker glove while spectators watch from behind the glass boards with a "SUPREME" advertisement visible.
On this day in 1987, Ron Hextall became the first NHL goalie to score a goal by shooting the puck into an opponent's net. He scored an empty net goal against Boston late in the third period. He said afterwards: "I knew I could do it. It was a matter of when."

A color photograph of a young jockey smiling atop a dark bay racehorse on a dirt track. The jockey wears red, white, and blue striped racing silks, white pants, black boots, and holds a white helmet in one hand. The horse has the number 4 on its saddle cloth and is being led by a handler holding the bridle. Partly cloudy sky and racetrack fencing in the background.
On this day in 1965, Todd Kabel was born in McCreary, Manitoba.
He was the first Canadian-based jockey to earn more than $10 million in purse money. By the end of his career, he had recorded 3,306 wins with total purses amounting to $105 million. He died in 2021.
