Latinobaseball.com celebrates Hispanic Heritage at Ballparks.

Latinobaseball.com, the premier website on Ballplayers of Hispanic descent will celebrate Hispanic Heritage month in Dodger Stadium (9/17), US Cellular Field (9/23), and Yankee Stadium (9/30) by honoring the “Latino Player of the Year” on each of the home teams during a pre-game presentation.

The awards will be presented to Robinson Cano of the New York Yankees, Jose Contreras of the Chicago White Sox and Rafael Furcal of the LA Dodgers for their on-field contributions to their playoff bound teams.

“These players deserve this award and for it to occur during Hispanic Heritage month elevates the excitement of our communities during such a meaningful time”, explained Ralph Paniagua, publisher of Latinobaseball.com.

The Hispanic Heritage Day at the Ballparks has been implemented by R. Paniagua Inc. for more than 12 years at most of the stadiums located in key Latino Markets.

“Now with the continued growth of latinobaseball.com, fans have a great place to learn the history and legacy of Latinos in baseball. And this legacy continues in the young stars of today” said Beto Villa, Editor of LB.

The event is sponsored by Johnnie Walker Black in all 3 stadiums. The American Dairy Association will also sponsor the Yankee Stadium event. They will host suites at each Stadium for local business leaders. A Black and White photo exhibit of “100 years of Caribbean Baseball” will also be presented.

“With the Latinobaseball.com site, fans can also see the photo gallery, the list of every Latino who has played in baseball since 1900 and the stats of their favorite players of today” stated Beto Villa.
