I tried to add image of Reds Frank Robinson. This is a hard site to add images to. To say Frank Robinson is one of Greatest Reds Players ever is an under statement. Rookie of Year, MVP. Gold Glove. Number retired in Cincinnati and Baltimore where he was also MVP, Hit for Triple Crown, World Series MVP. First Black Manager in MLB ever with Cleveland. Over 550 Home Runs. HALL OF FAME. Prayers to The Robinson Family. Wish I could have added picture of Frank in Reds uniform with bat, a good picture. There, that worked. I changed my Avatar to his picture. THE GREAT FRANK ROBINSON.

Frank broke down many barriers. He was a great player and manager. The game is better because of him.
