PITTSBURGH -- Francisco Cervelli was standing outside PNC Park on Monday evening when a fan approached him and asked for a picture. The woman had something in return, too: a donation she felt was a long time in the making. She was too young to have helped Roberto Clemente, she told Cervelli, but she could now help the Pirates as they seek to aid Clemente's homeland in a time of need.
For 12 hours on Monday, members of the Pirates' organization unloaded items from the steady stream of vehicles that circled around the cul-de-sac on Mazeroski Way.
