Happy Birthday to Frank Robinson

from WinCustomize Forums
Frank Robinson - One amazing baseball player & manager.

Some highlights:

Robinson still going strong at 70

"...From 1956 to 1976, Robinson put together a Hall of Fame career over the course of 21 seasons, hitting .294 with 586 home runs and 1,812 RBIs with five different teams -- the Reds, Orioles, Dodgers, Angels and Indians.

Robinson, who celebrates his 70th birthday on Wednesday, is the last right-handed hitter to win the Triple Crown and the only person to win the Most Valuable Player Award in both leagues, a feat that still surprises Robinson himself. He figured free agency would cause a lot of players to repeat the feat.."

Too much more to post. For the rest & links to great photos: http://washington.nationals.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article.jsp?ymd=20050831&content_id=1191207&vkey=news_was&fext=.jsp&c_id=was

Tonight he's managing the DC Nationals vs Atlanta in two.

Happy Birthday Frank Robinson

Boy you know your stats ...being a Red Sox fan I limit myself.

Think you and my 80 year old Mom could hang out though. She knows all this stuff too ...she never misses a game.

Bash2Cool - You really wouldn't like any word I would use re. the Yanks.


Fairyy~ I have to give credit where it's due. Note that the stats are surrounded by quotation marks. I just did a cut & paste from the article at the link- a sample of what Frank Robinson did in part of his career.
