Sorry to say that the playoffs will be long over by the date you arrive. The final seven game series will start next week.
I will be in Havana from 26 May for 7 days will there be any Games I can see while I’m there?
Matanzas plays at home on May 20-22 against PInar del Rio. That series ends the second round of the baseball season. The playoffs will most likely be starting the last week of May.
March 20-22 has already passed. Do mean April or May?
One more question. I think I have it figured out, I believe Matanzas plays Pinar Del rio on the 20 – 22 of march in Matanzas.
But it that is correct, what time do the games start?
Wow is that a fun schedule to read. Looking for some help. Does Matanzas have a home game the week of May 20 – 24th against Pinar Del Rio?
Thanks
There is no game on the 15th and Industriales hosts Ciego de Avila at the Latinoamericano Stadium in Havana on April 16th.
I am finding it difficult to understand the schedule. Are there any games in Havana Between on the 15th or 16th of April?
