El Cubano

The things you learn by watching baseball. So Red Sox pitcher, Bronson Arroyo, is Cuban, at least partly Cuban. Su papa es Cubano. Apparently, his dad needed a kidney transplant, so Bronson volunteered to give his father one of his. The father declined his son's generous offer, but was able to find a donor who happened to be a coworker of Bronson's mom. His father probably didn't want to jeopardize his son's health and athletic career. Sweet story.

Boston is now up 2-0 in the series against St. Louis.

And I bet you money Mr. Arroyo Sr. is a fan of Charles Bronson.

That was a great story of unconditional love among family members.
