About the Book

Complaciendo a decenas de fanáticos, el presente libro contiene la historia del béisbol amateur cubano desde sus orígenes registrados, en 1914, hasta la terminación de lo que vendría siendo, desde una perspectiva histórica, la era propiamente "amateur", en 1961. Una edición separada de los textos que corresponden a la segunda etapa, la "pelota de aficionados", patrocinada y promovida por el gobierno cubano desde 1962, está en preparación. Marino Martínez Peraza nació en Güira de Melena, un pequeño pueblo en el sur de La Habana, Cuba. Llegó a Estados Unidos el 20 de mayo de 1980 por la llamada Flotilla de La Libertad. Escritor deportivo especializado en béisbol, boxeo y juegos olímpicos, ha sido director de las páginas deportivas del Diario Las Américas y editor de mesa de El Nuevo Herald. En ambos diarios de Miami ha publicado centenares de artículos, incluyendo sus crónicas sobre figuras legendarias del deporte. Es autor de dos libros: Por Amor a la Pelota (Miami: Ediciones Universal, 2008), que recorre la historia del béisbol amateur cubano desde 1914 hasta 2008. Su segunda obra 75 astros latinos en Grandes Ligas (Miami: Palmar de Junco, 2014), recopila la trayectoria de los más destacados peloteros latinoamericanos del béisbol de Estados Unidos. Participó como conferencista en el Primer Congreso del Béisbol Cubano celebrado en 2012 en la Universidad de Fordham, Nueva York. En 2013, ofreció una charla en el Miami-Dade College sobre la historia de las mujeres cubanas en la pelota de Estados Unidos. Fue el creador del Salón de la Fama del Deporte Cubano, institución no lucrativa que, desde 2003, reconoce a figuras destacadas del deporte cubano. Es miembro de la Asociación de Escritores de Béisbol de Estados Unidos (BBWAA) con derecho al voto para la elección de jugadores a Cooperstown (Salón de la Fama de Grandes Ligas). La combinación de excelencia periodística y cultura ha convertido a Marino Martínez Peraza en uno de los más destacados cronistas deportivos de Cuba.
