December 29, 1878, the first official game in Cuba between Havana and Almendares in the first Baseball championship, that day, December 29 in 1940, was declared "Baseball Day" from that date the exaltations were made to the HALL of Fame, I show photos of inductions at the Cerro Stadium, in one of them we see Mike González and Merito Acosta, on the day of the ceremony when they were inducted, and another from previous years.

Today marks the anniversary 1929 of the 3 homeruns that James Cool Papa Bell of the Cienfuegos team hit in a game, which was the first in the history of Cuban Baseball with that characteristic, their rival was Habana, the 1st against Oscar Levis, the 2nd against Cliff (Tinkerbell) Bell and the 3rd to Martin Dihigo.

Happy New Year to everyone, I make my posts in this thread with the interest that you know about Cuban baseball, but I don't know if any of you like it, I don't know who sees what I post, very few have commented, sometimes I think that They have no interest in my thread, however I publish on Facebook for more than 20 baseball groups, also chess, photos of Cuba, etc., and at home one of my publications, many mark that they like it, ask me questions and suggestions , they ask me to publish on various topics, and in this thread I don't see that type of reaction, but I see that in other threads when someone publishes something, there are immediately several who comment, my question is: do I continue or not?

I enjoy your posts.

I don't have much to say about them as I have only very rough knowledge of Cuban baseball & baseball cards - I have nothing to contribute in response. But I find your posts interesting & educational because of that - they're small doses of learning & often just very cool.

Plus 1 to what John just said. Roland, even though the only Cuban cards I look for and have in my collection are 1924 Diaz Cigs cards of Washington players, I hope you will continue posting.

Happy New Year! I certainly enjoy your posts and read them every time I see them. I don’t usually have much to add but definitely want you to continue. I love Cuban cards. Definitely quite a few on my wishlist.

Thanks
