One of my favorite pitchers, IF h...Robin Roberts...<br />One of my favorite pitchers, IF he had a nasty bone in his body, he could have been much better than he was...although that was good enough!<br />He was one of those guys that didn't strike out hitters much, maybe 2-5 a game. The problem with him was his Control & Command...it was to good! I think this is about right...he walked 1-1/2 per game, and SO about 2-5.<br />The hitters would dig in at the plate, knowing he wouldn't do a Gibson on them and knock their heads off, not even by accident! So, he was hit more than he should have been, heck everyone knew he wouldn't hit them.ken reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07501114589046544682noreply@blogger.com
