Significance of autograph (valuable):
Obviously at the time no one knew that on this day Jon Matlack would throw Roberto Clemente his last regular season pitch. But what everyone had come to see Clemente delivered, hit number 3000th of his career. Unfortunately, as we all painfully know, Clemente would die that winter in a plane crash delivering relief items to the people that most admired him. the everyday person. a He would never see another one! Doc Ellis, Clemente’s teammate would be the Pirate’s starting pitcher. Two special autographs when considering this moment in baseball history.
