Almanac Home">Baseball Almanac</a></h2> Baseball history on January 28, including a list of every Major League baseball player born on January 28, a list of every Major League baseball player who died on January 28, a list of every Major League baseball player who made their big league debut on January 28, and a list of every Major League baseball player whose final big league game was on January 28.  </div>   <div class="topquote"> <img src="/images/typewriter-with-paper.png" alt="Baseball Almanac Top Quote" /> <p>"No matter how your mind works, baseball reaches out to you. If you're an emotional person, baseball asks for your heart. If you are a thinking man or a thinking woman, baseball wants your opinion. Whether you are left-brain or right-brain, Type A or Type Z, whether your mind is bent towards mathematics or toward history or psychology or geometry, whether you are young or old, baseball has its way of asking for you. If you are a reader, there is always something new to read about baseball, and always something old. If you are a sedentary person, a TV watcher, baseball is on TV; if you always have to be going somewhere, baseball is somewhere you can go. If you are a collector, baseball offers you a hundred things that you can collect. If you have children, baseball is something you can do with children; if you have parents and cannot talk to them, baseball is something you can still talk to them about." - Baseball Historian Bill
