@@stevea6816 that's not for you, me OR Roberto to decide. I'm also grateful for the existence of Roberto though I never saw him play. But he opened so many doors for Puerto Rican baseball players and I cannot/will not, ignore my heritage - as American as I am (even though Puerto Rican's ARE born American citizens). I hear what you're saying. Such a great man, so intelligent and thoughtful - and ultimately to selfless for his own good. It seems pretty obvious to me that he was needed elsewhere. Sleep in peace Roberto - you are missed here more than you know.

My favorite player and in my eyes the best baseball player of my lifetime, treated poorly and discriminated against by the press at times causing him to retreat from the press causing even more problems from the press. A proud man who did not like being called "Bobby" by some announcers and others, always corrected folks that his name was Roberto. He was just a thrill for me to watch with regards to all aspects of the game. Big reason for the 1971 World Series win and utterly devastated me when he passed to the point baseball was no longer that important to me. Just loved seeing him play, no one quite like him and will never be again. Just my two cents!!!!

Only one 👊🏽🇵🇷number 21 legend..Roberto Clemente lives forever

What a great man ... there are no words to describe the admiration I had for the great Roberto Clemente, this interview brought me to tears. Humble man without bragging, may his soul rest in peace.

I saw Carlos playing in Arecibo, P.R., during the mid 1960s. Even at the end of his career he was a swift runner. In one game I saw him hit a triple to left field, standing! Saw him too at another game go into the stands to silence an abusive heckler (Good memories of a skilled and very flashy player).

Legend and one of the Greatest to ever do it.

I got my Dad a Cangrejos Jersey# 21 He wears it proudly when we go to His Mets games. He is as proud as this Man and as a Son I'm proud also. When the name Clemente comes up in sports he is remembered for his Humanity first , then his Heritage , then the talent that He was. Orgulloso por Siempre.

I had the blessing of playing Little league ball with his boys. It might have been 1974. The team was invited (and I went) to a birthday party at the Clemente house. Good memories.

Unbelievable charisma and strength of character.
