Roberto Clemente
Roberto Clemente was a great baseball player but he was also a great man off the field. He would bring supplies to the survivors of natural disasters. He held a baseball clinic for children. He also was a pretty good baseball player. He won 12 gold glove awards. Plus he won the commissioner award. He was magnificent. But he was not born good. He had to practice like every one else. So he played softball until he was 17 years old and that's when he got discovered. He loved baseball and was also kind He lived for years until one fateful day. He was bringing supplies to earthquake survivors when his plane crashed. His death was mourned by all his fans but he was forever remembered in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Plus the baseball humanitarian award was changed to the Roberto Clemente award.
