A son of former Cuban leader Fidel Castro's has been elected one of three vice
presidents of the International Baseball Federation after a vote Sunday in
Lausanne, Switzerland, Cuban sports officials said.
Antonio Castro, a 39-year-old doctor, was elected to the post along with
Japan's Kazuhiro Tawa and Mexico's Alonso Perez. Ricardo Fraccari of Italy was
selected the federation's new president. The IBAF administers baseball outside
the major pro leagues.
