Brooks Robinson was considered one of the greatest third baseman to have ever played the game of baseball. The Arkansas native became a first ballot Hall of Famer in 1983 and never stopped coming to Cooperstown.
There are so many cool baseball events that go on in Cooperstown each summer. The Hall of Fame Classic baseball game played at Doubleday Field is one of them and is a tradition that goes back a few generations. Names like Brooks Robinson, Ozzie Smith, Earl Weaver and Wade Boggs are just a few of the names that have highlighted the games over the years. The Classic was cancelled in 2020, and again last year.
