Robby Robinson eye injury and comeback tale in Orioles saga
The 1966 triple crown star Robby Robinson suffered a double vision eye injury after colliding with Al Weis in June. He missed time, returned to finish with a .311 average, 30 homers and 94 RBIs, and showed progress after tests in Los Angeles and Baltimore. He faced lingering double vision a foot above his left ear, improved by spring, with his first serious batting practice pending in Florida.
