Question: Which Cleveland and Cincinnati legends were inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame alongside Jackie Robinson on this day in 1962?

Answer: Cleveland Indians pitcher Bob Feller, Cincinnati Reds center fielder Edd Roush, and Reds manager Bill McKechnie.

Feller pitched for Cleveland from 1936 to 1956, pausing his career for nearly four years to serve aboard the USS Alabama during World War II.

Roush batted .323 and recorded more than 2,300 hits during his career, which spanned 1913 to 1931. McKechnie managed the Reds from 1938 to 1946, leading Cincinnati to the 1940 World Series championship.
