Sherry Robertson Biography

Sherry Robertson
Sherry Robertson
  • Born Jan. 1, 1919

The nephew of Baseball Hall of Fame pitcher, manager and club owner Clark Griffith, Robertson was part of an extended family that operated the Washington Senators/Minnesota Twins franchise of the American League for almost 65 years. Robertson was a native of Montreal, Quebec, the son of a minor league player; his father was Griffith\'s brother-in-law. Robertson moved to the Washington, D.C., area with his widowed mother and six siblings when he was a child. He attended the University of Maryland.\n', '

Robertson\'s brother Calvin was adopted by Clark Griffith, took his uncle\'s last name and succeeded him as the Senators\' president. Calvin Griffith controlled 52 percent of the team\'s stock (his 26 percent share in addition to sister Thelma Griffith Haynes\' equal stake) and operated the Senators as majority owner from 1955–60. He then moved the club to Minneapolis–St. Paul after the 1960 season, and led the renamed Twins until he sold them in August 1984.\n', '

Sherry Robertson was the longtime director of the team\'s farm system, and two other brothers, Jimmy and Billy Robertson, were also club executives. In addition, brother-in-law Joe Haynes, a former Washington pitcher, was an executive vice president of the Senators and Twins; another brother-in-law, Joe Cronin, was a Hall of Fame shortstop who was player-manager of the Senators in 1933–34 (leading them to the 1933 AL pennant), manager and then general manager of the Boston Red Sox (1935–58), and president of the American League (1959–73); and at least two nephews, Clark Griffith II and Bruce Haynes, took active roles in managing the Twins\' affairs.\n', '
