The U.S. will permit Major League Baseball players from Cuba to represent their home country in the World Baseball Classic next year. The decision could be a big step in once again turning Cuba’s national team into heavy hitters on an international stage.
The decision announced Saturday in a news release by the Baseball Federation of Cuba could be a big step in once again turning Cuba’s national team into heavy hitters on an international stage.
While the sport of choice for much of Latin America is soccer, baseball dominates in Cuba. The island has gained fame around the world for its baseball talent. Cuban athletes competing on the island can’t earn a paycheck under the communist government, which prohibited professional sports following the Cuban revolution 60 years ago.
Weeks later, Cuban officials accused the Biden administration of blocking those players from representing Cuba.
