With 16 straight Gold Gloves and leading the American League in fielding percentage for 11 seasons, Robinson is undoubtedly one of the most skilled defensive third basemen ever. Sparky Anderson acknowledged Robinson by saying, “He can throw his glove out there and it will start 10 double plays by itself.”

Five-time ERA and three-time strikeout champion, Pedro Martinez successfully struck out 5 of 6 hitters (at the plate) during the 1999 All-Star Game. Thanks to his infamous fastballs, baseball has never witnessed so many strikeouts from one player during the 1992-2009 MLB season.
