Sadly, this week, my namesake, Hall of Fame pitcher Robin Roberts passed away. I actually was named after him as my mother has admitted to me. She'd heard the name on a radio broadcast of a baseball game he was pitching for the Phillies at the time and liked the sound of it. She'd never heard the first name used before evidently. Paul at Powerline has a nice discussion of his pitching career here.
My condolences to his family.
