As the eloquent Jayson Stark says:
This is the saddest news of a magical Baltimore baseball summer.
Brooks Robinson was a legend and a Baltimore baseball icon.
But more than that, he was a beautiful person with a warm smile for everyone he met and a love of baseball that shined brightly every day of his life.

Brooks Robinson vs. Mike Schmidt for Greatest Third Baseman of All Time was an endlessly fun debate with Balmer baseball fans.
For this day, I'll cede the point: Brooks was the greatest.
