Player Profile: Clemente Acosta

I have one card of Clemente Acosta, from 1991 Line Drive.

Playing career: Clemente Acosta pitched seven seasons in the Pirates and Angels organizations. In 181 games he went 22-30 with 16 saves and a 4.44 ERA. A fuller account of his career can be found at The Greatest 21Days.

My memories: Only know him from his card.

Where he is now: Anyone know where Clemente Acosta is now?

Google Autocomplete results: He is first when you type Clemente Ac, ahead of Clemente Achievement Academy High School, a Chicago school named after Roberto Clemente. Another prominent Clemente Acosta is a marketing consultant.

Coming up next: The next profile will be Jorge Alvarez.
