1/13/57 Robin Roberts No blindfolds are used here, either but the entire panel knows who he is. They have to guess what he does in the off-season.


Roberts is a baseball star whose fame has faded a bit over the years, (and no he doesn't host Good Morning America), but in the early 50's he was the best pitcher in baseball, winning 20+ games six straight years from 1950-55. There was no Cy Young award yet but he would have won multiple ones:

And, yes, he did play basketball.
