Industriales

Industriales is a baseball team in the Cuban National Series. One of the two teams based in the city of Havana, Industriales is historically the most successful team in the National Series, the main domestic competition in post-revolutionary Cuban baseball. They are similar to the New York Yankees in the sense that they have fans all over the country, being a sure sellout in any stadium, also hated by many outside the capital. The Super Classic of Cuban National Series takes place six times per season between Industriales and Santiago de Cuba, and it's also the equivalent of the MLB classic New York Yankees-Boston Red Sox, the matchup also represents the rivalry between the two cities (La Habana and Santiago de Cuba), dating back to the era when Cuba was a colony of Spain, two centuries ago. They are known as the Lions (los leones) or "the Blue Ones" (los azules) or "the Blue Lions" (los Leones Azules). Royal blue is their color, though teams like Camagüey and Ciego de Ávila also have blue uniforms (navy blue and sky blue, respectively.)
