The Cuban major league player José "Candelita" Iglesias is living magical moments and it seems like everything is going well for him: he shines in the Major Leagues wearing the Mets de Nueva York jerseys and hit a musical home run with his single "OMG," which debuted at number one on the Billboard charts.
But that's not all! After having the privilege of being a player in 2015, the current second baseman will return to the All-Star Game, although this time it will be to delight the audience with his hit -on July 16th- at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas.
The performance will not be a novelty to a certain extent, because on June 28th, he performed "OMG" live after a 7-2 victory of the Mets over the Houston Astros at Citi Field in Flushing, New York.
From an artistic perspective, "Candelita" began its winning streak on the Billboard charts a few days ago by debuting as a leader, according to the Latin Digital Song Sales criterion.
The athlete himself took a big swing at that ball and celebrated on his Instagram account.
And the story is not new! For example, in February, she recorded the single "No voy a volver" with the well-known Cuban singer and composer Lenier Mesa. Without a doubt, she is on a positive streak.
In sports, he shows an offensive average of .347, with three home runs and 16 RBIs, despite starting the season with an invitation contract to "Spring Training" and playing 42 games in the immediate lower category (Triple-A).
Furthermore, the injection of energy from the Cuban has been fundamental in helping the Mets improve their record, to the point of being in the running for a postseason spot.
The former outfielder, currently 34 years old, made his debut in the Major Leagues in 2011 with the Boston Red Sox and has played for seven teams. His lifetime average is .281 in a total of 1,126 games, as revealed by ESPN statistics.
So, amidst so many good news for the Cuban-American baseball player, all that's left is to keep dancing to the beat of "OMG".
