Stolen Jackie Robinson statue's bronze cleats to be donated to Negro Leagues Baseball Museum.

The bronze Jackie Robinson cleats left behind after a statue of the baseball pioneer was stolen in Kansas will be donated to the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum. Thieves cut the statue off at its ankles, leaving only the feet behind at McAdams Park in Wichita, where a youth baseball league called League 42 plays. The league, named after Robinson's uniform number, is calling the donation "the absolute right thing to do."
