My Father is always talking about how great of a fielder Brooks Robinson was when he played the game, and I've only seen limited clips of him.

I was wondering if anyone knew where to find or has any clips of him fielding that you'd be willing to share.

Thanks for any help

Good luck finding clips, let us know when you do or someone else does. Take your Dad's word for it, I have never seen another hot corner guy like Brooksy. This guy was hands down the best ever that I saw. Many others have made big plays in playoff competition, but day to day, this guy was like Ozzie Smith.

I figured it was hard, so far the only clip(s) I have are what is in Ken Burns' Baseball and the plays he made in it were pretty impressive.

I've been looking for a few years now trying to find something on him, but to no avail, I thought with the way technology is these days someone would of posted something somewhere online, but I guess not.
