Sharing Dreams ... One Glove, One Bat, One Ball at a Time!
STARTING LINEUP
We are a team of professionals with a deep commitment to caring, teaching, helping others, and, of course, baseball. Beisbol Across Cuba is based outside NYC in Bronxville, and we are pushing hard to finish the bridge across the Straits of Florida.
Steve's chief title is DAD, and Beisbol Across Cuba was founded, in part, so he could help his 14-year-old son learn the value of giving back, and that the needs of people in much of the world are far more pressing than having the latest iPhone.
General manager of Bronx Baseball Dreams and a coach of Bronx Bombers teams, Dan is equally valuable in his role of BAC GM and third-base coach.
A versatile fielder who can play many positions, Claudia is also a marketing whiz who has spent spring training in the bullpen, preparing her pitch for corporate sponsorships.
