To: a little elbow grease

Someone confused Frank Robinson for Jackie Robinson? Egad, Jackie is in a place by himself, not that Frank wasn’t one of the best. At least he didn’t confuse him with Brooks Robinson :) I can tell I’m old; I know these all these guys but I haven’t a clue about who plays today. For me Curt Flood, and his slavery complaint, was the beginning of the end of professional baseball for me. For my baseball fix you can still find me in the summer at the little league field down the road. Among the best years of my life were spent with my son coaching his teams.
