The #PlayersTrust celebrates the history, legacy and influence of Latino Players – like Margaret Villa– in America’s favorite pastime. We continuously strive to engage, equip and empower the next generation of kids and aspiring baseball and softball players while celebrating all cultures. 🙌⚾️ 🇲🇽🇩🇴🇻🇪🇨🇺🇵🇷🇨🇴🇭🇳🇳🇮🇵🇦

Margaret (Marge) Villa was one of the 11 Latinas who played professional baseball in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, the first and only professional league for women. During her baseball career, she broke records playing in 500+ games for the Kenosha Comets.

To amplify the impact her and other Latino Players have made on and off the diamond, her story is now part of the Smithsonian exhibition “¡Pleibol! In the Barrios and the Big Leagues/En los Barrios y en Las Grandes Ligas. In the video via Latinas Talk Latinas series, @amhistorymuseum curator Margaret Salazar-Porzio tells us more about the legacy of Marge Villa. Check out the video via @slc_latino.

The #PlayersTrust celebrates the history, legacy and influence of Latino Players – like Roberto Clemente – in America’s favorite pastime. Clemente fought for recognition of Latino ballplayers, held free baseball clinics for children in Puerto Rico, and helped people in need across the U.S. and Central America. 🙌⚾️ 🇲🇽🇩🇴🇻🇪🇨🇺🇵🇷🇨🇴🇭🇳🇳🇮🇵🇦

To amplify the impact he and other Latino Players have made on and off the diamond, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History (NMAH), Smithsonian Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES) and the Smithsonian Latino Center (SLC) created ¡Pleibol! In the Barrios and the Big Leagues / En los barrios y las grandes ligas, a bilingual journey into the heart of American baseball.

Learn more about the humanitarian spirit that inspired Roberto Clemente’s words and actions. Check out the exhibition, including a #3D, bilingual tour of Clemente’s Pirates jersey. https://3d.si.edu/collections/pleibol

Congratulations to the 30 nominees for this year’s Roberto Clemente Award! 👏🤩 Each year every Major League club selects one Player to be considered for the honor. This philanthropic award recognizes those who lend a helping hand and give back to their community just like Roberto did.

Please note: Clubs were permitted to nominate players on restricted lists and/or if they were otherwise traded or designated for assignment.
