Baseball among Americans more than any other sport is a national pastime; playing baseball in Africa is slowing becoming a Ugandan field of dreams.

Playing Baseball in Uganda, Africa means a lot of things to a lot of people and to the Lugazi Little League team playing in the Little League Baseball World Series made dreams come true.

In 2012 The New York Yankees players and Manager Joe Girardi hosted the Ugandan Little League team with a private tour of Yankee Stadium. “I just tried to show them around a little bit and spend some time with them,” Girardi said. “It’s a wonderful story. 

 It takes everyone back to your Little League days. To watch what these kids accomplished, talking to their coaches; none of them had ever even seen an airplane before or ever traveled before. For them to accomplish what they have is truly amazing.” Maybe in 2015 the Uganda Little League team will meet A-Rod and celebrate his 40th birthday with him in style.
