Throughout his career, Robinson appeared in just 4 games, where he unfortunately did not register any hits, home runs, or RBIs, finishing with a batting average of 0.0. His lack of offensive production has led to a minimal statistical legacy, but his participation in the major leagues during a formative time for baseball contributes to the larger narrative of the sportโs history.
