Roberto Clemente


On this date in 1972, Roberto Clemente collects his 3000th hit. The hit is unfortunately his last as he perishes in a plane crash on New Years Eve attempting to bring relief supplies to earthquake-stricken Nicaragua.

"Why does everyone talk about the past? All that counts is tomorrow's game."

"Any time you have an opportunity to make a difference in this world and you don't, then you are wasting your time on earth."
