“Very insightful, many facts I didn’t know about Panamanian baseball.”
– Dave
Years before collective Dominicans,
Venezuelans and Mexicans took Major League Baseball by storm, it was a small but very noteworthy group of Panamanians in the 1970s that first proved that talent could be found in multiple quantities across the Caribbean. Three of them
were also Pirates: Manny Sanguillen, Rennie Stennett and Omar
Moreno.
The Panamanian trio were baseball's
original 'Pirates from the Caribbean' and they each own World Series rings to boot. But
no Panamanian is as accomplished as Hall-of-Famer Rodney Carew, or likely future Hall-of-Famer, Mariano Rivera, who owns four
World Series rings.
Panama was a participant in the inaugural World Baseball Classic, and you can learn all about Panama's baseball history in The World in a Ballpark:
