Clemente Still Revered By Fans and Collectors

September 30, 2015 By Bob D'Angelo

Roberto Clemente 1956 Topps

Roberto Clemente was a great baseball player, but his throwing arm was extraordinary. I know. I saw it happen. And Joe Morgan was the victim. On July 21, 1970, at the Astrodome, Clemente’s Pirates were facing Houston. Jesus Alou was on first base in the bottom of the first when Morgan sent a stinging line drive single to right field. Alou went to third on the play, and … [Read more...]
