Brooks Robinson; Mr. Orioles

This week we take a deep dive into the life and baseball career of arguably the greatest defensive third-basemen who has ever lived, and Orioles loyalist Brooks Robinson. There is a saying where I come from and it goes; In New York, they name Candy Bars after Reggie Jackson, in Baltimore, the citizens name their children after Brooks Robinson. And that is not empty platitudes being offered up, it is a tradition that still happens today, over four generations later. He is the last of his kind, from a bygone era. Success has never compromised his moral integrity or his stand-up character. Even today he remains as auththentic and as genuine as the day he left Little Rock, Arkansas to pursue his baseball dream. This is his story.... #BrooksRobinson #BaltimoreOrioles #JimPalmer #FrankRobinson #EarlWeaver #HarryDalton #ConnieButcherRobinson #MLB #BackwardsKPod #JohnnyBench #LeeMay #TonyPerez #RobertoClemente
