Read this paragraph from I Never Had It Made. I wasn't just another athlete being hired by a ball club. We were playing for big

stakes. This was the reason Branch Rickey's search had been so exhaustive. The search had spanned the globe and narrowed down to a few candidates, then finally to me. When it looked as though I might be the number-one choice, the investigation of my life, my habits, my reputation, and my character had become an intensified study. What is the author’s purpose for including this paragraph? to inform readers about Rickey’s thorough selection process to inform readers about Rickey’s distrust of Robinson to persuade readers that Robinson is the best athlete in the league to entertain readers with a story about Robinson and Rickey

Answer:

To inform readers about Rickey’s thorough selection process.

Explanation:

Jackie Robinson's "I Never Had It Made" is an autobiographical account of how he became one of the first black sportsmen to ever play in the Major League. The book also contains accounts from his days when he first got the job and the obstacles he faced, be it racial discrimination from all sides including his teammates.

As given in the excerpt, Robinson stated that <em>"Branch Rickey's search had been so exhaustive"</em>. It had <em>"spanned the globe"</em>, narrowing down candidates till his turn came. He also remembered he felt like <em>"the investigation of my life, my habits, my reputation, and my character had become an intensified study"</em>. This <u>shows how thorough the selection process was done by team Rickey for their team's players</u>.
