The Branch Rickey Award was given annually to an individual in Major League Baseball (MLB) in recognition of his exceptional community service from 1992 to 2014. The award was named in honor of former player and executive Branch Rickey, who broke the major league color barrier by signing Jackie Robinson, while president and general manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers.

  • Le prix Branch-Rickey est une récompense décernée annuellement par la Ligue majeure de baseball pour souligner l'implication d'un individu dans sa communauté. Il a été créé en 1992 et peut être remis à un joueur ou à tout autre individu (entraîneur, propriétaire d'équipe, dépisteur, etc.) associé au baseball majeur. Le prix est nommé en l'honneur de Branch Rickey, un ancien joueur de baseball surtout connu pour avoir, en tant que dirigeant des Dodgers de Brooklyn, contribué à briser la barrière raciale et facilité l'inclusion d'athlètes Afro-Américains dans les Ligues majeures.
