“One of the reasons I’ve been able to play baseball well is because it’s fun for me,” Chuck Klein said. “Many players find it work.”
For 17 years, Klein excelled at the game he found so much fun. He spent 15 years as the Philadelphia Phillies right fielder where he was an offensive force. He was named National League MVP in 1932 and followed that performance by winning the Triple Crown in 1933. He was also an All-Star in 1933 and 1934.

Over the course of his career, Robin Roberts was two distinctly different pitchers.
Hall of Famer Ralph Kiner described the early part of his career best, when he said “Probably the best fastball I ever saw was Robin Roberts. His ball would rise around six or eight inches, and with plenty on it. And he had great control.”
But Roberts was able to last 19 years in the big leagues by transitioning into a craftsman who out-smarted his opponents. And each pitcher was among the most effective in the game.
