2023 ROBERTO CLEMENTE AWARD

The Roberto Clemente Award is bestowed annually to the player who best
represents the game of Baseball through extraordinary character, community
involvement, philanthropy and positive contributions, both on and off the field.

Every year, each MLB Club nominates a player to be considered for the Award in
tribute to Clemente's achievements and character. This year's list of nominees
features players whose various community and philanthropic activities have
focused on important issues ranging from awareness and fundraising to support
those with cancer and other illnesses or special needs, education for young
people, natural disaster relief, outreach to underserved children and
communities in the United States and abroad, and more.
