Archives of the Mayor's Press Office FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Date: June 7, 1997 Release #333-97 Contact: Colleen Roche or Dwight Williams (212) 788-2958 MAYOR GIULIANI HONORS THE MEMORY OF HALL OF FAMER ROBERTO CLEMENTE On the eve of the National Puerto Rican Day Parade, Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani attended the First Annual Friends of Roberto Clemente Dinner commemorating the 25th anniversary of the untimely death of the Hall of Fame baseball player. At festivities held at Mickey Mantle's Restaurant, the Mayor presented a proclamation to Mrs. Vera Clemente, the widow of the late Pittsburgh Pirate, and named June 7, 1997, Roberto Clemente Day in New York City. "In the same year we honor the contributions of Jackie Robinson to the game of baseball and American society, it is only appropriate that we remember another of the game's great pioneers Roberto Clemente," Mayor Giuliani said. "For 18 seasons, Roberto was an opposing pitcher's nightmare and a defensive wizard in the outfield, winning an astonishing 12 consecutive Gold Glove awards." "He played baseball with a passion that was matched only by the community service he performed for his beloved Puerto Rico," the Mayor continued. "Roberto was devoted to his homeland and her people. Sadly, it was on a relief mission from Puerto Rico to earthquake ravaged Nicaragua in 1972 that Roberto Clemente lost his life. Though he was taken from us too soon, Roberto's legacy lives on his bust in Cooperstown was the first to ever represent a Hall of Famer of Latino descent, a 12-foot statue of Clemente welcomes fans to Pittsburgh's Three Rivers Stadium, and, most importantly, his deeds and actions as a humanitarian and ballplayer have inspired generations of Americans."

His father became a foreman for the local sugar company while his mother worked at the plantation house. Roberto's father also sold meat and later purchased trucks that enabled him to enter the construction trade on a part-time basis. The Clementes valued education, and they wanted their son to be an engineer. Although Roberto was a good student, he had an early interest in baseball. He frequently engaged in poor person's baseball practicehitting tin cans with a stick. In addition to playing baseball during high school, he pursued track and javelin, throwing to the extent that he was considered a potential Olympic competitor. Roberto was judged to be a natural athlete by many. He demonstrated a supreme love of baseball while aiming for excellence in every chosen endeavor.
