## Receipt Spine

- MLB places Clemente under Jim Crow laws in Fort Myers during Pirates spring training.
- The sources describe Black players, including Clemente, being unable to stay or eat with white teammates.
- SABR and the Baseball Hall of Fame connect that resistance to his Black, Puerto Rican, and Latino identity.

## Guardrails

- Do not reduce the receipt to baseball stats or generic hero framing.
- Do not present Afro-Boricua as Clemente's direct wording; anchor it in Black, Puerto Rican, and Latino identity language.
- Do not use the Fat Joe tag as the historical hook or imply endorsement.
