Long Brooks Robinson story I believe I told on radio: When the Orioles played in Memorial Stadium, the PA announcer was named Rex Barney. When a fan made a great catch of a foul ball, he'd say, "Give that fan a contract." At a game with my dad and Brooks fouls off a pitch. Dad

‘The part of Robinson that will be hardest to transmit to posterity will be his upright character, his manly gentleness, his constant consideration for others…"People love Brooks because he deserves to be loved," said Manager Earl Weaver.’ washingtonpost.com/archive/sports…

I’m a longtime O’s fan in large part because of this guy. While Boog Powell was my favorite player, Brooks, Frank Robinson, Elrod Hendricks, Earl Weaver and the rest of the Orioles sparked an undying interest in the game for me. Brooks was a special player. Let’s win it for him!
