Default 1945-46 Martin Dihigo postcard
Elected to the MLB Hall of Fame by the Negro League Committee in 1977, Martin Dihigo (top row, center) is also in the Halls of Fame of Cuba (elected in 1951), Mexico (1964), and the Dominican Republic (2010). This rare postcard pictures Dihigo with his 1945-46 Cuban Winter League champion Cienfuegos team along with teammates that included Sal Maglie, Nap Reyes, Connie Marrero, Luis Tiant, Alejandro Crespo, and manager Adolfo Luque.
