Happy 91st Birthday to Major League Baseball Legend and Humanitarian Roberto Clemente!
Clemente is one of the most respected figures in the history of baseball, and while his 15 All-Star games, 12 gold gloves, four Batting-titles MVP, World Series MVP and two championships are incredibly impressive, his Clemente’s work of the Diamond is heritage.
Clemente spent much of his time in the low season with charity work and eventually gave his life literally. Niet alleen was hij betrokken bij het ontwikkelen van een ontwikkelingscentrum voor kansarme jeugdatleten in zijn huis van Puerto Rico, hij regelde ook dat noodhulpbenodigdheden naar Nicaragua gaan na een aardbeving in 1972. Nadat de eerste verzonden verzonden verzonden verzonden verzonden werden omgeleid door overheidsfunctionarissen, weg van de mensen die ze waren van plan te helpen, besloot Clemente een zending alleen te vergezellen om te proberen ervoor te Make sure it went to those who needed it. He never made it, with his plane that crashed over the Atlantic Ocean on New Year’s Eve 1972.
Now Major League Baseball remembers Clemente with the annual Roberto Clemente Award, who goes to the player “who represents the best baseball game by an extraordinary character, commitment of the community, philanthropy and positive contributions, both on and outside the field.” How many players to win the Roberto Clemente Award since 2000 can you name in five minutes?
Success!
