Pirates Modern Club Faces Season Without Clemente
The Pirates start spring training in Bradenton with similar depth to last year despite Roberto Clemente's death. Manager Bill Virdon and GM Joe Brown stress leadership remains, citing past leaders like Groat Hoak Mazeroski and current captains Cash and Sargell. Jackie Hernandez gains support after Clemente comforted him, and Manny Sanguillen may fill Clemente’s outfield role if May proves solid behind the plate. The team posted a .274 batting mark and strong pitching, fueling optimism they can win even with Clemente gone.
