Brooks Robinson

Legendary Hall of Famer

The Human Vacuum

1960 Topps #28, Brooks Robinson
A pillar of sportsmanship & integrity was also arguably the best third baseman in MLB history.
In an era filled with larger-than-life personalities, Brooks Robinson stood out for something rarer: integrity, humility, and consistency of character, which is why he was universally admired long after his playing days ended.

On the field he was known as the "Human Vacuum" and there were no finer defensive third baseman to ever play the hot corner.
At bat, nobody was more clutch than Brooks.

  • 1964 American League MVP – The only AL MVP of his career. He hit .317 with 28 HR and 118 RBI and was widely regarded as the best defensive third baseman in baseball.

  • 1970 World Series MVP – Earned after a legendary defensive performance against the Reds, making multiple highlight-reel plays that defined the Series.

Brooks' résumé reflects both elite production and historically great defense.
