Clemente memorabilia to be auctioned at ASG

PITTSBURGH -- Roberto Clemente Jr. stood in front of a table set with history. There were two of his father's Gold Glove Awards, one of his snazziest suits, one silver bat, a mustard-yellow batting helmet, two iconic No. 21 jerseys and a pair of World Series rings.

After years of keeping the Pirates legend's memorabilia inside their house in Puerto Rico, the Clemente family decided it was time to share it with the rest of the world. The Clementes and Hunt Auctions announced on Friday that hundreds of items from the Clemente family's collection will be up for auction during the All-Star FanFest in Miami this July.
