Roberto Clemente

Roberto Clemente lost his life way too soon in a plane crash in 1972. Before that moment, he put himself in the conversation as one of the greatest players in MLB history. Clemente was the poster boy for a five tool player. He could hit as evidenced by his .300 lifetime batting average and 3,000 hits. He was also the best defensive right fielder of all time, winning 12 Gold Glove awards. Clemente was a 15 time All Star and won the 1966 NL MVP.
