Renowned Cuban umpire defects to United States
He will be rewarded by having to go through the entire minor leagues as a Umpire.
A top Cuban umpire has defected to the United States.
The Spanish-language newspaper El Nuevo Herald reports that Nelson Diaz arrived in Miami on Sunday with his wife and two daughters.
Diaz worked in the Olympics and the 2006 World Baseball Classic. His 26-year career supposedly ended after he was picked to work the 2009 WBC in Japan but was told by Cuban baseball officials he couldn’t go because they didn’t trust him.
