The 1971 World Series became a showcase for Roberto Clemente’s 5-tool brilliance.
“The Great One” hit .414 (12-for-29) with 2 homers, 2 doubles, and a triple.
He also unleashed one of the greatest throws in the history of the game.
Clemente was named World Series MVP as the Pirates beat the Orioles in seven games. #ClementeDay
