The Cuban Baseball Federation also left a message of condolence: “We accompany Erly Casanova in the pain caused by the death of his wife. Our hug at this sad moment for him and his family. A hug from #CubanBaseball.”

Last December, Erly Casanova reached 100 wins in national tournaments. He achieved his 100th success in the uniform of the Artemis Hunters in battle against a well-known rival, the Industrialists.

The player from Pinar del Río was announced as a reinforcement for the Artemisa team for the second elite Cuban baseball league, whose competition resumed on Saturday. However, he was absent from the first call due to his partner's illness.

The Artemis Hunters explained it in a publication in which they reported that almost all athletes were in optimal condition for the Games, only Erly Casanova had doubts at the moment since “her personal situation is very delicate”. Before the terrible result was announced, the team warned that the player was interested in pitching, although it is now clear that he has other priorities.
