Jackie Robinson. His dad ADORED Jackie. Check Wikipedia... Also Robinson Cano swings exactly like Robinson Caru... Also his number 24 was switched from 22 to accomadate Clemens PLUS 24 is 42 backwards.

Jackie.
I'm not sure, but I think Cano's dad knew Jackie from when Jackie played winter ball. Since I caught that on TV, it's veracity is anyone's guess. . . .
