Mexican American Baseball in the Alamo Region

Richard A. Santillan,Jorge Iber,Grace G. Charles,Alberto Rodriguez,Gregory Garrett

Mexican American Baseball in the Alamo Region celebrates the game as it was played in the Tejano and Tejana communities throughout Texas. This regional focus explores the importance of the game at a time when Spanish-speaking people were demanding cultural acceptance and their political and civil rights in cities like San Antonio, Corpus Christi, New Braunfels, San Diego, Kingsville, and Pleasanton. All had thriving Mexican American communities that found comfort in the game and pride in their abilities on the field. On these pages are historical images and wonderful stories that are now immortalized, taking their rightful place in the annuals of the game. !Viva Tejas, Viva Beisbol, y Viva los Peloteros!
