Quote of the day: Frank Robinson

Frank Robinson on negotiating his own contract during his Hall of Fame career:

“You used to go in there and sit in front of the general manager, and he used to tell you how bad you were. I’d tell him, ‘Yeah, but I drove in 125 runs,’ and he’d say, ‘Yeah, but you left 800 runners on base.’ ”
