Ron Robinson #81/517

 


This week - Ron Robinson! Pete Rose nicknamed him “True Creature,” Ron was a swingman for the #Reds from 1984-90. He had a great year in 1986 and was THIS CLOSE to making Reds history in 1988. In 1990 Ron was traded to the #brewers. He missed out on the Reds' World Series win but was very good in Milwaukee, going 12-5 with 2.91 ERA to close out the year. 

Other topics: Alan Thicke, the Golden State Killer, Tom Browning, and perfect game near-misses.
