In 16 of those seasons, he was the Gold Glove award winner. For 15 straight seasons, he was the American League 's starting All-Star third baseman. He led AL third basemen in assists 8 times and in fielding 11 times. He holds almost every lifetime record for third baseman by a wide margin: most games (2,870), best fielding percentage (.971), most putouts (2,697), most assists (6,205), most chances (9,165), and most double plays (618).

    Extractions: "Listen, I was the first black manager in baseball and there was incredible pressure. I don't blame anyone else. I was too tough . . . I lack patience. I probably got on guys a little too hard, with the wrong tone of voice." If I had one wish in the world that wish would be to have Jackie Robinson here to see this happen. I don't think that I would have stood the pressure or have gone through what Jackie had to. "I always tried to do the best. I knew I couldn't always be the best, but I tried to be." Close don't count in baseball. Close only counts in horseshoes and grenades.

    Extractions: Alpha Index Index by Sport Index of Women Career Hitting Record Other Resources Robinson joined the NL's Cincinnati Reds in 1956, hit 38 home runs and led the league in runs scored with 122, and was named the league's rookie of the year. He led the NL in slugging with a .595 percentage in 1960 and with a .611 percentage in 1961, when he batted .323 with 37 home runs and 124 RBI to win the most valuable player award. However, he hit only .200 in Cincinnati's five-game loss to the New York Yankees in the World Series. Robinson had an even better year in 1962, batting .342 with 39 home runs and 136 RBI and leading the league with a .624 slugging percentage, 134 runs scored, and 51 doubles. His production dropped somewhat, in part because of injuries, during the next three seasons and an arrest for carrying a concealed weapon got him in trouble with Cincinnati management. The Reds traded him to the Baltimore Orioles in 1966 and he responded with the best season of his career. Robinson won the triple crown with a .316 average, 49 home runs, and 122 RBI, also leading the AL with 122 runs scored and a .637 slugging percentage. Robinson was named most valuable player for that performance, becoming the only man ever to win the MVP award in both leagues. He was also named male athlete of the year by the Associated Press.

    http://www.all-baseball.com/archives/019224.html
    
    Extractions: At first glance, he isn’t too promising a candidate to be a beloved baseball icon. After all, Frank Robinson’s bad personal qualities are well-known. And, well, bad. For one thing, Frank Robinson the baseball player was about as mean as anyone this side of Ty Cobb. Few players saw careers with more taunts exchanged, plates crowded, beanballs hurled, or hard slides slid. No one keeps precise statistics on surly reputations, but any history of the game will recall Robinson as among the most combative and feared fighters of the 1950’s and 1960’s. Don Zimmer, who’s been around Major League Baseball for more than 50 years, once called Robbie “the fiercest competitor you could ever find” on a diamond. Once Robinson moved on from his rough-and-tumble playing days in the mid-1970’s, unfortunately, he hit some more rough patches as a manager. It’s tempting to say his record has been ‘up and down’, only there hasn’t been much ‘up’. In reality, Frank Robinson’s managerial record has been mostly been ‘down and down’.

Frank says he would like to stay with the team in some capacity when new ownership takes over. F. Robby never seemed too popular with Montreal fans on this board or others I've perused. That's understandable considering he was an employee of MLB prior to taking over management duties in that city. He's a company man that supports front office policy publicly. His onfield decisions were constantly criticized in forums, but recall Frank works out of the dugout and the critics sit at PC monitors.

In February 2002, he took a job that was supposed to last one season, after which he would have been more than happy to head back to his position in the offices of Major League Baseball. Yet Monday morning, Frank Robinson emerged from the clubhouse door, walked through the dugout and onto the playing field at Space Coast Stadium. In August, he will turn 70. He could retire and concentrate on getting his golf handicap in single digits. But not now. Not with baseball returning to Washington for the first time since 1971, when Robinson visited RFK Stadium as a Baltimore Oriole. With pitchers and catchers set to report to spring training here Tuesday, with the first workout scheduled for Thursday, he intends to manage this team now and in the future.
