The Cuban baseball player Noelvis Entenza González, pitcher for the Matanzas team, suffered a car accident this Friday with his family as they were heading to this city to celebrate his mother's birthday.
Born in Cienfuegos and 38 years old, the right-handed driver got into his car to travel to Matanzas and ended up having an accident that caused damage to the vehicle, but fortunately did not result in serious injuries to its occupants.
Yesterday I was born again. The car overturned with my family. Something inexplicable due to the speed at which I was passing a motorcycle," said the Matanzas veteran pitcher on his social media. **
The incident took place on Friday afternoon, although Entenza's mother's birthday is celebrated next Monday. The information did not specify the location where the events took place 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 post.
As sports journalist Yasel Porto Gómez pointed out on his social media, "the native of Cienfuegos continues to be one of the key players in the pitching rotation of the Cocodrilos within Cuban baseball despite his modest numbers this year and having already passed his prime as a pitcher, which even led him to the national team."
In May 2019, Entenza said he was on the verge of his premature retirement from baseball, claiming that "too many bad things" had happened to him since he switched from the colors of Cienfuegos - the team with which he debuted in 2003 - to those of Industriales.
According to the native of Palmira, the last straw was the rejection received to participate in the Intercounties League of Canada, where he had been playing for three consecutive years with the Kitchener Panthers.
"You are not going to travel due to poor performance and indiscipline," said the Chief of Sports Activities at the INDER, Raúl Reyes. "In the end, according to what I was told, everything indicated that the one who was against me playing there was the manager of the Industriales, Rey Vicente Anglada."
