Robin Roberts was a basketball star at Michigan State College leading his team in field goal percentage, lettering three years and being named team captain. After his third season he tried out for the baseball team as a pitcher and soon after was signed by the Phillies. He would become a Hall of Famer and a member of seven All-star squads who led his league in Victories four times and Strikeouts twice. Here's a trivia fact. He is the only pitcher in history to beat the Braves in all three cities that the team has been based in: Boston, Milwaukee, and Atlanta. I have 133 different Beckett recognized cards of Robin including these nine.
