Puerto Rico’s pre-eminent amateur baseball league has played every season since 1940. After the hurricanes last year, it vowed this one wouldn’t be different. At the Estadio Hermanos Marrero, a baseball stadium in Aibonito, Puerto Rico, parts of the roof over the grandstand are gone or twisted back. The Cayey Toritos played their 2018 home opener there because their stadium is still too damaged to use. Before the first pitch, a team prayer in the dugout ended with a rallying cry, “This is for our community!” The players are far from the millionaires who play in major league games; they’re students, salesmen, barbers, teachers and cooks. And they have lived the hardships of Hurricanes Irma and Maria, yet still take the field despite the aftermath, or because of it. The hurricanes devastated #PuretoRico, a baseball-loving island. But 7 months later, the Toritos and other teams in the island’s predominant amateur 18-and-over league have provided a semblance of normalcy by pressing on with their games. @dennismanuel took this photo of the roof of the stadium in Aibonito.
