Mexican-American Michael Angel Lopez, Spanish Boxing Translator and Baseball Trainer based in Minglanilla Cebu was given 32 Mizuno Baseball Gloves by the prestige MLB Major League Baseball Player Development of Asia this past week.
This past month Lopez was giving a Summer Baseball Clinic for 3 weeks in Talisay City to many underprivileged kids who have the desire to learn the game of Baseball.
Lopez who always volunteers his time and efforts for the Mexican and Latino Boxers that come to Cebu as a Spanish Translator and also volunteers his work as a cornerman or cutman (since his job in California is a License Vocational Nurse) for these boxers.
While growing up in Stockton California, he was the neighbor of one of the best Light Heavyweight boxer, The uncrowned World Champion, Mexican Alvaro “Indian Yaqui” Lopez…This was where he got the passion for boxing besides being a great Baseball player.
The youths in Talisay City are really going to get some good training this year. Besides Boxing and Football, the Filipinos can excel in Baseball globally. A great Thank You to Mr. Lopez for all your hard work for the baseball players in Cebu. – Richard William.
