Habana (baseball club)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Habana club was one of the oldest and most distinguished teams in the old Cuban League, which existed from 1878 to 1961. Habana, representing the city of Havana, was the only team to play in the league every season of its existence and was one of its most successful franchises. In their early history they were known by their colors as the Reds; later they adopted the names of Leones or Lions. Throughout their existence they had a famous rivalry with Almendares.
In the first Cuban League season, Habana'a captain (or playing manager) was Esteban Bellán, who had played professionally in the United States.
