Roberto Clemente and the Code

Wednesday (today) is Roberto Clemente Day in Major League baseball.  Clemente was by far one of the greatest and most exciting players of his generation.  Statistics do not tell the story of this great person, loved by all, and admired by all.  That love and admiration was because of who he was as a person and how he played the game.  Off the field, he was known as a great humanitarian who was tireless in his efforts for his native Puerto Rico, Latin America and the Caribbean.  He died in a small plane crash while delivering supplies to Nicaragua after an earthquake.  The award in major league baseball for the person who does the most for others off the field is the Clemente Award.  What baseball players do you know who make the greatest difference?  “I will give of my time, skills and money as I am able for the betterment of my community and world.”  Can you do something in honor of Roberto Clemente?
