Great pitcher, indeed! He was a Reds killer but that didn't make them unique. He killed pretty much everybody.
I will never forget a game he pitched against the Reds in Philly. Bobby Adams led off the game by hitting a homer and Roberts then proceeded to retire the next 27 batters in a row. The Reds lost the game. Roberts often pitched with only 2 days rest...a real workhorse.
