With the Cleveland Indians four wins away from the franchise’s first World Series championship since 1948, the mood around the team and the city has been mostly celebratory. Unfortunately, that joy isn’t being shared by Eddie Robinson, the lone surviving member of the 1948 Indians team.

Robinson is upset that he has not been contacted by the team at any point during its run to the 2016 World Series, according to the New York Daily News.

“That’s the funny thing about it. I haven’t heard a damn word from Cleveland. Not a word,” Robinson told the Daily News. “I’m disappointed. It just seems like they would want to talk to any member of the ’48 team, let the press talk to them. I don’t understand it. Maybe they’ll get in touch with me.”...

After learning of his story, many Indians fans are now pushing for Robinson and not Charlie Sheen — in the role of fictional Indians pitcher Rick Vaughn — to throw out the first pitch before World Series Game 1.

Works for me. Putting Charlie Sheen on a baseball field sounds a bit risky. What if he snorts up the first-base line?
