Jan. 5, 1945 — Jan. 12, 2019

Frank Robinson,
baseball’s fearsome
trailblazer, dies at 83
By DAVID GINSBURG
and BEN WALKER
AP Sports Writers
Crowding the plate, fear-
some and fearless, Frank
Robinson hammered his way
into the Hall of Fame.
His legacy, however, was
cemented that day in 1975
when he simply stood in
the dugout at old Cleveland
Stadium — the first black
manager in Major League
Baseball.
Robinson, the only player
to earn the MVP award in
both leagues and a Triple
Crown winner, died Thurs-
day at 83. He had been in fail-
ing health and in hospice care
at his home in the Bel Air sec-
tion of Los Angeles. MLB
said he was with family and
friends at the time.
“Frank Robinson’s resume
in our game is without par-
allel, a trailblazer in every
sense, whose impact spanned
generations,”
Commis-
sioner Rob Manfred said in a
statement.
Robinson hit 586 home
runs — he was fourth on the
career list behind only Hank
Aaron, Babe Ruth and Wil-
lie Mays when he retired and
now ranks 10th. An MVP
with Cincinnati and Balti-
more, he led the Orioles to
their first World Series cham-
pionship in 1966.
“Frank Robinson and I
were more than baseball bud-

land Indians manager Frank

dies. We were friends. Frank
was a hard-nosed baseball
player who did things on the
field that people said could
never be done,” Aaron posted
on Twitter.
“Baseball will miss a tre-
mendous human being,” he
said.
An All-Star outfielder in
12 seasons and a first-bal-
lot selection to Cooperstown,
Robinson also was a Rookie
of the Year, a Gold Glove out-
fielder and a bruising runner.
But his place in the sport’s
history extended far beyond
the batter’s box and basepaths.
Robinson fulfilled his
quest to become the first Afri-
can-American manager in the
big leagues when he was hired
by the Cleveland Indians.
