More about Daniel "Quemaito" Reyes. Dedication of the Tournament by Yacel Gómez:
This tournament is dedicated to the illustrious athlete Daniel Reyes, affectionately known as Quemaito. Biography of Daniel Reyes
Mr. Daniel Quemaito Reyes; was born in the Dominican Republic in 1965.
From a very early age he began to show his preference for baseball and at just four years old he began to play. In his adolescence he stood out in Center Field and several sports scouts wanted to sign him to bring him to the major leagues, but a back injury prevented it.
Daniel arrived in the United States in 1983. He played baseball for several years in big cities, then went on to represent New York in many Molinete, Fuetíao and Chata softball tournaments.
In 1993, the “Amistad League” was created, which had several teams to play baseball and softball. Years later he created the “Dominican Sports Foundation in NY.” This foundation is made up of a group of children's teams ranging from 4 to 17 years old.
El Quemaito has stood out for the great friendship he maintains with major league baseball players, among whom we can mention Hall of Fame members such as the great Yankees closer, the Panamanian Mariano Rivera, and the great Dominican pitcher Pedro Martínez. Also noteworthy are Dominican sluggers Alex Rodríguez and David Ortiz. In short, there are many baseball stars that Daniel has brought to share with the children to motivate them and keep them in sports.
Daniel Reyes, el Quemaito, is also a sports commentator, he is a person who loves and has given everything for sports, he is a tireless fighter who has given his support to everyone who identifies with this discipline.
Mr. Reyes has honored many personalities who support sports and today, on United States Independence Day, Cibao Meat Products wanted to honor him by dedicating this tournament, the celebration of the “7th Cibao Meat Products Interleague Softball Cup”.
