Alazanes de Granma is a baseball team in the Cuban National Series, based in the eastern province of Granma. Until the 2016-2017 season, the Alazanes were a frequent contender, but had never advanced to a National Series final. However, in 2017 Granma not only made it to the Cuban National Series final,[1] but swept Ciego de Ávila to win the series,[2][3] breaking a 40-year record of being seen as underdogs who could not compete with dominant powerhouse teams.[4]
The team's nickname is the "Alazanes," which refers to horses which have sorrel hair.[citation needed]
