Biography
Gene Robertson (1899-1981) patrolled the infield for the St. Louis Cardinals and other teams with a sure glove and a workmanlike approach during his decade in the majors, contributing to championship aspirations with quiet determination.
He carried the lessons of teamwork into his post-playing years, supporting local baseball and mentoring youth while keeping in close contact with fans who admired his craft, and his final rest is in Hawthorne Cemetery.
