THANK YOU MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL.

I would like to welcome and thank the Major League Baseball for your inclusion of Mexican and Venezuelan athletes, that may also fall under the preservations of Hispanic Baseball history within America. Thank You! I am proud to celebrate the recognitions of Fernando Valenzuela and Félix Hernández, especially as we are able to see research come to life with history in the making. I was particularly grateful as I reflected upon my previous writings in the blog post I published as MLB WORLD SERIES 2021! Where I learned of the history of Spanish / Latino American MLB athletes. Thank You Major League Baseball and congratulations!!
