A San Diego Black business leader helped local students celebrate the 75th anniversary of Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier in Major League Baseball by taking them to the Padres game.

SAN DIEGO - This wasn't just any typical San Diego Padres game, and April 15 isn't just any day on the calendar.

"Recognizing the 75th anniversary of Jackie Robinson breaking the color barrier," Williams III said."I rang the bell for my family. I rang the bell for my heirs. I rang the bell for my community.” "That's one of the reasons why we brought the baseball players because I identified some players that hadn't been to a Major League Baseball game," Williams III said."It actually made me cry in the kitchen. You know, because they need that experience, that exposure because with opportunity comes an unlimited amount of success."
