Phillies Legend Robin Roberts Remembered thumbnail

Even if you have never heard of Robin Roberts, the first line on his plaque hanging in Cooperstown sums it up: ‘Tireless worker who never missed a start in [the] decade of the fifties.’ Think about that for a second and try to picture one of the overpaid and babied pitchers of the modern era [...]
