legend of 21
The “Saint” of Puerto Rico.
The Legacy of 21 is a documentary about the life and heroic deeds of Puerto Rican baseball legend, Roberto Clemente, considered one of the greatest baseball players in history. Clemente was one of the game’s greatest players when he died tragically in a plane crash trying to deliver food to earthquake-ravaged Nicaragua in 1972. Roberto is viewed as a “saint” in Puerto Rico and this documentary explains why many fans and baseball legends believe that his number should be retired from baseball.
