    Caption
    Mariano Rivera is a Hall of Fame Panamanian baseball player. His success represents the rise of Afro-Latino baseball players in Major Leagues Baseball (MLB).
    Rivera is the last player in the history of Major Leagues Baseball who will have worn number "42," Jackie Robinson's number. In 1997, on the 50th anniversary of Robinson breaking into the League, MLB retired his number throughout all of MLB, but the players wearing "42" where permitted to continue doing so. After Rivera retired, no players have worn this number.
