"Rapid Robert" passes away at 92. He was an ornory old SOB, but there's no doubt he was one of the great pitchers of all time. Never played a day in the minors; threw the only Opening Day no-hitter in baseball history. Won something like 256 games-and yet lost three years of his career serving in the Navy during World War II.
RIP, Bob. You were Cleveland baseball for 75 years.
