Can not go to Cuba and not catch a baseball game. I am planning my trip for the end of May beginning of June. Anyone advise me on where I can catch a good game? and which teams are the ones to watch? Thanks in advance. Alejandro

Estoy planeando ir a Cuba al fin de Mayo o principio de Junio. Donde puedo ver un buen juego de beisbol? y cual son los mejores equipos? Gracias

Hello Alejandro

They are having the cuban "world series" or finals, in just about the time You are arriving to Cuba. I think they will end it in march but im not sure. The winners last year was the Industriales a team from Habana who beat Santa Clara in the finals. I watched one of the final games in Santa Clara. And two years ago i watched Industriales on their home arena in Habana its called Stadio Los Latin Americanos. You can buy really cheep tickets for two pesos cubanos=nothing. But You can also give 5 or 10 pesos convertibles to "buy" the best seats. I dont know much about baseball so i cannot tell You the quality of the game, i just went for the event. Its a BIG sport in Cuba.
If You are in Cuba on 1 May i can also recomend You to go to the revolusion square, early in the morning there are thousands and usually also Fidel El Comedante, but i dont know this Year cause of his helth.
If You have other question please ask i might be able to help u out.
Have a Good trip.

Thanks for the info. Hopefully they will still be playing by the time that I get there.
