Baseball in Cuba

Baseball in Cuba - Fred Conrad 

Here’s a good photo/audio slideshow from the New York Times’ Fred Conrad. The story shows how baseball isn’t just the national past time of the US. It amazes me every time I see pictures from Havana how old fashioned everything looks. Part of me feels sad for the residents who don’t have the opportunities for advancement, but part of me still thinks it is refreshing to see such a simple, untechnological way of life. As Conrad states, Cubans are passionate and proud people, especially when it comes to baseball.
