Chuck Domino, General Manager of the Reading Phillies and Leadership
Dinner chairman announced that Brooks Robinson will be the feature
speaker at the 2000 Leadership Dinner which will be held on Tuesday,
February 22, 2000.
One of the most popular players ever, Brooks Robinson inspired his fans to set an attendance record in Cooperstown when he was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1983. Robinson had some great days. In front of 100 million television fans, he hit .348 in five ALCS games and .429 in the 1970 World Series. Combined with his spectacular plays at third base, Robinson was named the series MVP as he led the Orioles to the World Championship over the Cincinnati Reds. He batted .318 in the 1971 fall classic and again made fantastic plays in the field, shown over and over on TV. Robinson led AL third baseman in assists eight times and in fielding 11 times. Considered the best defensive third baseman to ever play the game, Robinson holds almost every lifetime record for the position: games, fielding percentage, putouts, assists, chances and double-plays. Robinson won the 1964 MVP award on the strength of a .317 batting average, 28 homers and 118 RBI. A 15-time all-star, he was name MVP of the 1966 All-Star Game, getting three hits and scoring the AL's lone run. In the 1966 World Series, Robinson's presence discouraged the heavily favored Dodgers from bunting. The Orioles won four straight close games and the series. Career: Baltimore Orioles 1955-1977
