The Lost Son of Havana (Luis Tiant)
 

Just finished watching the documentary "The Lost Son of Havana". Nice film! If you were a fan of Luis, or if you are interested in Cuba from a baseball or politics perspective, this one is for you. Cameras follow Luis at the age of 67 in his first return to Cuba since he left in 1961.

Also some great stuff on Luis' dad (Sr.), who was a Negro League star pitcher.

Cheers,
Blair
