    It was then that the Phillies, led by their manager, Ben Chapman, repeatedly shouted racial slurs at Robinson when he stepped to the plate, an encounter that was vividly portrayed in "42."

    The City Council resolution states that Robinson was told to "go back to the cotton fields." According to Jonathan Eig, whose 2008 book "Opening Day" chronicled Robinson's rookie season, Chapman and several Phillies also made comments about Robinson's physical features.
