Day 122 (May 1, 2020 – 122)
I used to get a calendar every year, the type with a picture per month and usually of the muscle car variety, but once it a while I’d pick up a baseball calendar. I still have a few of these calendars stored in boxes somewhere, but this calendar pictures Brooks on the front of the calendar. It’s such a cool photo of Brooks during a night game, in-action, at Memorial Stadium. It states on the back cover about the cover shot, “1983 Hall of Fame inductee Brooks Robinson stalks the white sphere.” It also has a different picture of him, in his away uniform, on the inside for the month of May. The calendar is actually a lot nicer looking than this photo would indicate (looks a bit dull in color, but it's glossy and bright).

The calendar has a very nice Clemente pictured for the month of August; back cover states “Latin whirlwind and hero: Roberto Clemente”
