Who is Roberto clemente?

Answer 1

Roberto was born in the summer of 1934 in a house of concrete and wood on an old country road in Barrio San Antón, Carolina, Puerto Rico. He died on December 31, 1972, in a plane crash a few miles from his birthplace while attempting to deliver aid to earthquake victims in Nicaragua.

Roberto Clemente had exactly 3000 hits in his major league career before he died in a 1972 plane crash while taking supplies to Nicaraguan earthquake victims. Clemente was already a baseball legend, a rangy right fielder who was four times batting champ of the National League (1961, 1964, 1965 and 1967) and twelve times a Gold Glove winner for defensive prowess. He was especially known for his headlong baserunning, cannon arm, and penchant for swinging at nose-high fastballs. Clemente played his entire major league career (1955-72) with the Pittsburgh Pirates, and won two World Series with the team: in 1960 (over the New York Yankees) and in 1971 (over the Baltimore Orioles). He was named the league's most valuable player in 1966. Clemente got his 3000th hit on the last day of the regular season in 1972. That December, when an earthquake devastated parts of Nicaragua, Clemente organized relief flights from Puerto Rico and boarded one of the flights himself; he died when the plane crashed into the ocean on 31 December 1972. The next year he was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame, becoming its first Hispanic member of the Basball Hall of Fame ...
