Monday, January 12, 2009Cuba has a Bob Feller TooI don't know that much about Cuban baseball, but given the decline Cuba's economy and quality of life since the collapse of the Soviet Union -- not to mention the defections -- it would certainly not surprise me if the quality and vibrancy of the game had declined as well. Strong social forces are at play! Perhaps an allegory for life in Cuba can be found in the example of Cuban baseball! Quick! Someone! Give me a big fat social treatise on the subject:Ernesto Morilla, a wiry 86-year-old who played professional baseball in the early 1950s, knows what ails Cuba's national pastime. Old men complaining about young men not taking the game seriously? Hmm, maybe things in Cuba are exactly the same as they are everywhere else. Posted by Craig Calcaterra at 1:15pm Comments
