A Texas community is looking past people's immigration status, bringing together migrants to play a classic American pastime in the unique Amateur Latin American Baseball League.
How many MLB players are Latin American?
Throughout Major League Baseball history, close to 2,000 players of Hispanic descent have been featured on big-league rosters. Today, they make up nearly 25% of the league's talent -- a number that continues to rise each season.
In case you are wondering, still, all teams have at least five Latin American players on their rosters. The Houston Astros, who won the 2022 World Series, count 17, almost half of the team's total.
