	Premiered April 21st on PBS {Please Check Local Listings for Rebroadcast}
	Roberto Clemente was not the first Latino to play in the majors, but he was the first Latino star to have a clear and lasting impact on the game of baseball. As an outspoken and at times controversial player, he helped to shatter stereotypes about Latinos and paved the way for the next generation of Latin American and Caribbean ballplayers. (1 x 60, HD).
