Additional quotes by Roberto Clemente
No, I don't learn the basket catch from Mays, Roberto protested in his marked Puerto Rican accent. It was Luis Olmo and Herman Franks who teach me when I in Dodger chain. That back in 1954 Winter league. Before that, I miss fly ball many time 'cause I try to catch too high. But now no drop one ball since I use basket catch. Clemente said Olmo and Franks instructed him to catch the ball about chest high instead of holding his hands outstretched. Later, he said, It became more natural for him to drop his hands even lower, below his waistline. It work good for me and I juss keep doing it, he said. It make it more easy for me to throw too, after I make catch.
