TV TODAY
BROOKLYN DODGERS: THE GHOSTS OF FLATBUSH | 6 p.m., HBO | A documentary about the team from 1947 (when Jackie Robinson broke baseball’s color barrier)to 1957 (when the team shocked New Yorkers by relocating to Los Angeles). Unlike ESPN’s recent docudrama about the Yankees, this one is strictly a documentary, including interviews with former players.
ALSO
RESCUE ME | 11 p.m., FX | Art parallels life as the crew puzzles over Jerry’s suicide. The audience is likewise trying to figure out how that plot turn makes any sense.
