Cesar Geronimo was born on this date in 1948 in El Seibo, Dominican Republic. He signed his first professional contract with the New York Yankees in 1965, but made his Major League Baseball debut with the Houston Astros in 1969. He later was traded to Cincinnati and became a key member of the renowned "Big Red Machine."
During his playing career, Geronimo was known for his exceptional defensive skills, winning four consecutive Gold Glove Awards from 1974 to 1977. He was also a part of two World Series championship teams with the Reds in 1975 and 1976, contributing to one of the most dominant teams in baseball history. Geronimo's best offensive year was 1976 when he hit .307 with a .382 OBP and 22 stolen bases. After retiring in 1983, Geronimo returned to his home country, where he became involved in youth baseball development, contributing to the sport's growth in the Dominican Republic. Happy birthday, Cesar!

As owner of the Newark Eagles for more than a decade, Effa Manley made her clubs a social force off the field and baseball force on it. We celebrate the first woman elected to the Hall of Fame on #InternationalWomensDay.
