My NBC5 did a fabulous feature on Eddie Robinson; 'At 100-Years Old, Eddie Robinson Brings to Life the Golden Age of Baseball"
"...The 100-year old is the oldest living former Major League Baseball player and has stories for days. Including, during his playing days in the 1940s when he assisted Babe Ruth in 1949, as the Great Bambino’s health was failing as he was honored in front of Yankees fans for a final time."
Mr. Robinson has been a huge supporter of the Bobby Bragan Youth Foundation and is on the Advisory Committee for the Bobby Bragan Collegiate Slugger Award. He has been a part of the award from the beginning!

Remembering Hank Aaron
Bobby Bragan quote on Hank Aaron- “...There aren’t five men faster in baseball, and no better base runner,” Bobby Bragan, Aaron’s manager in the mid-1960s, told Sports Illustrated. “If you need a base, he’ll steal it quietly. If you need a shoestring catch, he’ll make it, and his hat won’t fly off and he won’t fall on his butt. He does it like DiMaggio.”

Bobby Bragan Youth Foundation
The mission of the foundation is simple: To support, encourage, and motivate eighth grade students to become outstanding scholars, citizens, and athletes, and to serve as leaders and role models for their peers.
The foundation has been awarding scholarships to deserving youth from our area since 1992, and to date has promised more than $1 million in scholarships to a total of 437 students. More than 98% of BBYF scholarship winners have gone on to college, attending such prestigious institutions as Brandeis, Brown, Dartmouth, MIT, Northwestern, Notre Dame, Rice, Stanford, Texas A&M, Texas Christian University, The University of Texas at Austin, The University of Virginia at Charlottesville, and West Point, among many others.
Until his death, Bobby was the CEO/Chairman of the Bobby Bragan Youth Foundation, which provides college scholarships to students from public schools across the Dallas/Fort Worth metorplex. Every year, 8th grade students are offered the opportunity to compete for these $2,500 scholarships, which are redeemed once the recipient has graduated from high school and enrolled in college.
