Frank Robinson, Hall of Famer, first African American big-league manager, dies at 83

https://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp...207-story.html

"Hall of Fame outfielder Frank Robinson, the only major leaguer to be named most valuable player in both the National and American leagues and the first African American to manage in the big leagues, died Thursday in Los Angeles after a long illness, according to the Major League Baseball. He was 83.

Robinson, who rose from the sandlots of Oakland to become one of baseball’s most feared sluggers — his 586 home runs rank 10th on baseball’s all-time list." LA Times


Condolences to his family and friends. Rest in peace Mr. Robinson.
