In 1864, after finishing his studies in the United States, Nemesio Guillo, his brother Ernesto and Enrique Porto returned to Cuba. Nemesio brought a ball and a bat in his luggage. The next day the three of them started, but they gradually added to the practice. other young people, until two years later Team Habana was formed, with two teams that played against each other, on the grounds of Paseo y Mar street, the 1st Habana Park, I show photos of 2 years ago when the Route plaque was inaugurated in the Linea y G Park, at the monument to Emilio Sabourin, a group of Americans were present

Thanks for sharing, Roland. That is almost as old as the US game of baseball.

Here is a photo/cdv from 1862....below....Not Cuban related but just a very old picture....
