Roberto Clemente Quote

I was mad last year. I played as well as anyone else on our team and I didn't receive one vote for MVP. Don't get me wrong; I didn't say I was the best last year or that I should have won the MVP award. But nobody seemed to care about me. But you win the batting title yourself. They can't take that away from you.


As quoted in "Clemente Will Seek Raise in Pay Next Year" by Lou Prato, in The Gettysburg Times (Tuesday, October 3, 1961), p. 5 - Baseball-related
