Andrew Heaney has no idea how the process for Major League Baseball's Roberto Clemente Award works. Not the voting. Not the selection. Not the announcement.

Yes, serve.
As baseball rises to its October crescendo, the sport will soon pause on the field to recognize work off the field. The Clemente Award will be given during the World Series to a big-league ballplayer who has great character, who is involved in the community, who makes positive contributions all around.
