Susini and Le Blanc, the great tragedy, in 1922 in a game between the Cuba and Central teams of the Sugar League, due to a bad decision by the umpire, there was a great discussion and pitcher Le Blanc, after having retired, returned again screaming and offending and Susini who had the bat in his hands, with all his strength he hit Le Blanc's skull and after a few minutes he died, Susine was sentenced to 12 years in prison, and his entire promising career in baseball was null and void. For the Cubans Stars in exhibitions in the United States, now I show a photo that I edit of the Cienfuegos amateur team from 1912, you see Le Blanc sitting, but the most interesting thing is that the one seen below is Cristobal Torriente amateurs.
