    People remember the bat and the speed, he was also one of the best defensive right fielders ever. Probably the best. Those rope throws to 3rd and home, I still get chills thinking about those. If you got to 2nd on a gapper or down the line shot consider yourself very lucky when he was out there. All these years later still a mythical figure, almost fitting he was never found at sea. Taken to wherever hero's go.

    Roberto Clemente was to right field what Willie Mays is to center. Gold standard players. True superstars not just with five-tool ability but baseball brilliance from the neck up. Look at this double by Clemente. He was running so hard from the box that if the outfielders had messed up he might've scored!! Fantastic to see, and, sadly, rarely seen today.

      I am looking at your Dad's major/minor league stats. He was a DAMN GOOD player !!!! It is criminal that he didn't play 4-6 more years in the major leagues. His minor league stats were amazing. How does one hit .350, with an OBP of .450, with 20 dingers, not get called up to the major leagues? Dang crime. And 26-27 homers as a 36-37 year old? Who the heck was holding him back?

    What's remarkable about this is that Clemente did not celebratory dance...no gyrations....no chest pounding....no "look at me" antics. He handled this milestone just like he did with everything else in and out of baseball...with class and dignity.
    Class and dignity.....two qualities that are sadly missing from the bulk of professional athletes in 2022. Ah, back then professional sports was populated by MEN, and not the FRAGILE DIVAS we've got today.
