Episode 54: Roberto Clemente Jr.

This episode...WOW.  Coach Ballgame has been telling the Roberto Clemente Story to thousands of kids the past 20 years.  Today, we have a conversation with Roberto's oldest son, Roberto Clemente Jr.  What did Roberto like doing with his kids when he came home from Pirates games?  How did his mother Vera lead the family?  Who stepped up to be a father figure for Junior when the accident happened?  What saved his life when depression set in, and how is he carrying the Clemente name moving forward.   There's an incredible Ruben Sierra Story. There's a dozen quotes that are life changing. There's a story about a gang fight that broke out on a baseball field. There's enough here to make a dynamite film.  Maybe Coach Ballgame should write it! Enjoy the story of Roberto Clemente Jr.   Rake! Wanna support?  www.patreon.com/chopandballgame
