In addition to Robinson, Rascal and Senators General Manager Randy Whitaker will also be hand. They will have the Senators famous Prize Wheel and information on ticket packages for the coming 2008 season. Rascal will be signing autographs as well.
Robinson spent his entire career with the Baltimore Orioles playing from 1955 to 1977. The 1964 American League Most Valuable Player appeared in 18 All-Star games during his career, starting 11 of them. At the conclusion of his career, the Orioles retired his number 5 in 1977.
Over the years, he earned the nickname of “The Human Vacuum Cleaner” and there is no wonder why. He won 16 Gold Gloves for being the best defensive third baseman in the American League.
