Who is Norge Luis Vera?
Norge Luis Vera Peralta is a right-handed baseball pitcher, who has been a frequent member of the Cuban national baseball team.
In Cuba, Vera pitches for Santiago de Cuba of the Cuban National Series. He has been a dominating force for years, including the 1999-2000 series, when he led the league with a 0.97 ERA, 17 victories and eight shutouts—all in a 90-game season. He then pitched in the second game of the 1999 Baltimore Orioles – Cuban national baseball team exhibition series.
