I played in Cuba during WinterBall in the ’50’s as a pitcher. I played for Almendares and Marianao. I saw the government change hands twice.
Gracias por este honor. Mira! Mi sueno es un dia veer Cuba libre.
Gracias, Tommy! Y bien dicho!
My father tells me he used to go watch Tommy pitch at the stadium in those days.
remember when Tommy won Gold in the Olympics for US he came to Miami to celebrate – with a big nod to Cuban-Americans in Miami
With Rick Monday, Tommy Lasorda’s proudest moment on the field.
