An underrated Hall Of Famer, during a 21-season career, he became the first player to win League MVP honors in both the National and American Leagues, won the Triple crown, was a member of two teams that won the World Series (the 1966 and 1970 Baltimore Orioles), and amassed the fourth-most career home runs at the time of his retirement (he is currently seventh). During the last two years of his playing career, he served as the first permanent African-American manager in Major League history, managing the Cleveland Indians to a 186-189 record. He went on to manage the San Francisco Giants, the Baltimore Orioles, the Montreal Expos and the Washington Nationals.
His career totals include a .294 batting average, 586 home runs, 1812 runs batted in, and 2,943 hits in 2808 games played. At his retirement, his 586 career home runs were the fourth-best in history (behind only Henry Aaron, Babe Ruth, and Willie Mays),although he has since been passed by Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa and, undoubtedly, by Ken Griffey, Jr. He is second on Cincinnati's all-time home run leaders list (324) behind Johnny Bench and is the Red's all-time leader in slugging percentage (.554).
This white American League jersey from a 1980's Cracker Jack Old Timers Game was worn by Hall of Famer Frank Robinson. Tagged in the collar and on the tail with a Bike Athletic tag. Also tagged in the side seam with a Bike wash flag tag (stating that the jersey is a size 42 and is 100% polyester). "American" (on the front), "National Old Timers Baseball Classic" (on the sleeve), the Bike logo (on the opposite sleeve) and "F. Robinson" with the number 20 are printed on the jersey. Jersey exhibits very light wear, which is what you would expect with a jersey worn in an exhibition game of this nature. If you are looking for an affordable jersey worn by a Hall of Famer, now is your chance! View Lot Detail page
