Call Me Roberto!: Roberto Clemente Goes to Bat for Latinos Kumar Sivasubramanian and newspapermen long charmed byRoberto Clemente always loved baseball. Growing up in Carolina, Puerto Rico, he swung tree branches (since he didnt have a bat) and hit tin cans. He was always batting, pitching, running, sliding. His dedication paid off when, at the age of 19, he was tapped for a major league team. First stop: chilly Montreal . . . where he warmed the bench and himself, longing to play baseball. Months later, he finally got his chance with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
