... Hi Eric, I bought the super-advanced 1971 set early this year, but I haven't opened it yet, so I was surprised to hear that Clemente is a -6 on the set. He...
Hmm, what's the fastest running rating you've ever seen? A 1-17 only have a .55 chance of taking the extra base against Clemente. If the run expectancy of...
This topic came up a while back over at the StratFanForum. Clemente is rated -6 from 1960 through 1965. All other seasons he was rated -5 except for his...
