The Cuban baseball player Noelvis Entenza Gonzálezpitcher for the Matanzas squad, suffered a car accident this Friday with his family when he was heading towards this city to celebrate his mother’s birthday.
A native of Cienfuegos and 38 years old, the right-hander got into his car to travel to Matanzas and ended up suffering an accident that caused damage to the vehicle, but fortunately did not cause serious injuries to its occupants.
“Yesterday I was born again. The car overturned along with my family. Something inexplicable due to the speed at which I was going when passing a motorbike,” said the veteran pitcher from Matanzas on his social networks.
The accident took place on Friday afternoon, although Entenza’s mother’s birthday is celebrated next Monday. The information did not specify the place where the events occurred or the number of people involved in the incident.
Grateful for his good fortune in the accident, the pitcher sent a greeting to “team 90” in his publication.
As the sports journalist pointed out Yasel Porto Gómez on his social networks, “the native of Cienfuegos continues to be one of the fundamental pieces in the pitching of the Crocodiles within Cuban ball despite his discreet numbers this year and having already passed his best stage as a mticulista, which even led him to the national team.”
In May 2019, Entenza said he was on the verge of his premature retirement from baseballalleging that there are “too many bad things” that had happened to him since he changed the colors of Cienfuegos – the team with which he debuted in 2003 – for those of Industriales.
According to the Palmira native, the final straw was the refusal he received to participate in the Canadian Intercounty League, where he had been playing for the Kitchener Panthers for three consecutive years.
“You are not going to travel due to poor performance and indiscipline,” INDER’s Head of Sports Activities, Raúl Reyes, told him then. “In the end, according to what they told me, everything indicated that the person who was against me playing there was the manager of the Industriales, King Vicente Anglada”.
