Clark may be best known for "the catch" it is widely regarded as one of the most remembered plays in the history of Bay Area sports.
Clark, who played nine seasons with the 49ers from 1979 through 1987, is celebrated on August 7 in honor of the number he wore-- 87. The celebration today though, is much bigger than "the catch," it is about bringing attention to ALS the disease that took Clarks life. "He's helping you knowing that you're trying to take his spot, but that didn't matter to him because he was a team player," said Clarks former teammate, John Taylor. "It was all about the brotherhood with him."
