    Frank Robinson passed away.

    Frank Robinson, a star, trailblazer and one of the most decorated baseball figures in history, has died, MASN reported Thursday. He was 83.

    Robinson, a Hall of Famer and the only player to be named MVP in both the National and American League, had battled cancer for years.

    The longtime Reds and Orioles outfielder, who also played for the Dodgers, Angels and Indians, collected records and glory in his 21-year career, in which he won the Triple Crown and two World Series.

    Before his 586-home-run career even ended, Robinson became the first black manager in Major League Baseball, when he was player-manager of the Indians in 1975. He would manage Cleveland, the Giants, Orioles and Expos/Nationals
