Buck Showalter is known for being a great manager to teach young players how to play at the Major League level. Apparently, Showalter is also a great teacher of history. After learning that a young Orioles prospect did not know who Frank Robinson was, Showalter required the player to write a research paper on Robinson. So a note to all young ballplayers: Know your history and its significance...or else. Read about Showalter's assignment over at Yahoo! Sports. http://yhoo.it/1haZYhx
