Roberto Clemente used power and speed in an elegant manner to forge a Hall of Fame career in the city of Pittsburgh. Clemente became a Pirate during the 1954 player draft when the Brooklyn Dodgers left him unprotected after the season, his first as a professional. For the next 18 years Clemente starred in the Pirate outfield. He won four National League batting crowns and batted .317 in his career, with exactly 3,000 hits, 240 home runs and 1,305 RBI. He also won 12 Gold Glove Awards, his powerful right arm is legendary. Clemente died on December 31, 1972 when a plane carrying him and four others with supplies for earthquake-stricken Nicaragua crashed. The Pirates retired his number 21 in 1973, the same year he was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY.
