5/5/13: This off-season, members of Yoenis Cespedes’ family - including his mom - traveled safely to Florida after defecting from Cuba over a year ago. This weekend they made the 20-hour drive to New York to see the A’s play the Yankees. In the top of the 5th, Cespedes hit a two-run blast into the A’s bullpen, giving the A’s a 4-1 lead. Naturally, he looked to his family for approval, and got an enthusiastic thumbs up from his mom, Estela, making for one of the most adorable moments of the season so far. (x)
