Jackie's daughter says don't retire Clemente's 21

She and Frank are so right with not retiring Roberto's number. He was a fantastic ballplayer and would have probably set records that would be extremely hard to catch if not for the wreck. He showed baseball what can be done if you have the determination to accomplish that goal. But to retire his number is really stretching it. They did not retire Babe Ruth's number nor Henry Aaron nor Lou Gehrig's nor Cal Ripken's and they set great records. Let's leave the situation as is.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it
