If you’re looking for a view that is breathtakingly beautiful, then look no further.
The Tulsa Drillers unveiled their completed Jackie Robinson mural just outside of ONEOK Field in Tulsa’s Greenwood District and we cannot express enough how remarkable this artwork is.
Sitting on the back of the Greenwood Chamber of Commerce West building and directly behind the outfield wall, the 26ft. By 40ft. colourful mural was painted by African-American artists Chris “Sker” Rogers and Thomas “Detour” Evans.
Progress of the mural had been shared on both the artists' and Drillers' social media pages up until its completion.
The mural sits in a perfect location not only with its close proximity to the ballpark but due to the history of racial segregation that sits on the street over on Greenwood Ave.
As Robinson broke the colour barrier and created opportunities for future generations of the game, the Drillers are the minor league affiliate of the Los Angeles Dodgers, which Robinson played with for 10 years when they were based out of Brooklyn.
