Day 9 - Baseball on The Mind

We all live within our mind.  On March 15th, the mindset of many in Havana was a baseball playoffs game between the Industriales and La Habana.  Everywhere we went, televisions were tuned on to the game.  People crowded inside and outside of bars to watch.  Even the guitar player from the Buena Vista Social Club was watching the game on the wall TV while playing with a band in Old Town.  My friend Donna Scholl, a huge baseball fan, engaged a bar owner in a talk about the games.  He had an art wall of fame with signatures from many Cuban players he proudly displayed.


 
The Industriales went on to win the championship, defeating Villa Clara in the finals.
