Clemente at Bradenton Field during Spring Training 1971. Our seats were near the RF foul pole. Every time Roberto

GOD Bless his soul.

Yes, and he was a better right fielder than Aaron too by some margin, but overall, it's not even close. E.g. 143 vs. 94 WAR. And yes, I know Clemente had a couple of end of career seasons left in him where he would have added a little.
