 A drunken driver rear-ended Robinson and Righetti in Robinson's car.The resulting shoulder injury prevented Robinson from being the left-handed side of a catching platoon with the Yankees in 1981, and he missed both the 1981 and 1982 seasons while on the disabled list, and never made it back to the Major Leagues.During spring training in 1984, Robinson led the Oakland A's in batting average but was sent to the Triple-A Tacoma Rainiers, before accepting a player-hitting coach position with Oakland's class-A Modesto A's.
