Good read John. Here was Roberto showing he could also play a little defense, as he robs Pee Wee Reese of extra bases in the summer of '55.
CLEMENTEcatch1955.jpg John, I picked up this "Pittsburgh Signing Clemente" original letter a few years ago. It came with a typed duplicate copy of the request letter (which I have). This shows that there is no question of how much the bonus was that the Dodgers paid Clemente. ClementeLetter.jpg Last edited by thekingofclout; 08-18-2012 at 09:03 PM.
