Robinson died Tuesday at the age of 86. The Orioles scored five runs during Wednesday night's win against the Nationals, which coincidentally was Robinson's jersey number.

He spent his entire 23-year big league career with the Birds, winning two world series championships.

During that period Robinson compiled 16 gold gloves, took home an MVP and made 18 all star teams.
