The Little Rock Travelers baseball team located in Little Rock, Pulaski
County, Arkansas, became a charter member of the Southern Association in
1901. They won their first pennant in 1920 for manager Norman (Kid)
Eberfeld who was still manager in 1922. One of the most beloved players was
"Rube Robinson." Born John Henry Roberson in Floyd, near Searcy, White
County, Arkansas, in 1889, "Rube" pitched for the Travelers between 1916 and
1928 and won 26 games for them in 1920 and 1922. Robinson retired in 1929
at the age of 40.
