Well, I finished reading yet another book about an immortal of baseball. Roberto Clemente put up great offensive statistics, was a highly skilled right fielder with a feared throwing arm, and was vigilant about the improper treatment of Latin ballplayers in the 50's thru 70's. Sadly, he perished while on a mercy mission for earthquake victims of Nicaragua. Lots of firsthand accounts here of people who new Roberto well.
