Tetelo Vargas was one of the greatest Latin/Negro League ballplayers of all-time. Vargas' playing career spanned 26 seasons from 1927-53, playing primarily for the Cuban Stars and New York Cubans in the U.S. as well as many winters in Puerto Rico and, in later, years, Mexico. Tetelo was a terrific all-around player who excelled in center field while hitting for both average and power as well as being a top base stealer.
