Product information

Baseball arrived in Veracruz, Mexico in the hold of a ship at the end of the XIX century, coming from Cuba at the hands of emigrants and some Americans employed by commercial houses that were booming. In the years following its arrival, the sport did nothing but grow and become more popular, especially in the north of the country, both as a practical sport and as a spectacle to watch, with stellar figures who became legends of the game. This title takes a look at the history of baseball in Mexico, its cultural impact, the history of great personalities and the outlook that is predicted for the future, as well as a collection of photographs.
