I never realized that the PNC park wall was a tribute to Clemente. Interesting read.
Thanks for the video and info about Robert. As a Sox fan, I’m hoping he can eventually fill what seems to be a void in CF. He appears to have good basic tools but needs to learn the strike zone to improve his hitting prowess.
Outfield Fly Rule is an excellent source for prospects…Highly underrated, given its content..I’m glad MLBTR links them occasionally, good work guys..
