Twins Hang On To Beat Tigers!

Tigers 2 Twins 3 W-Thielbar (7-0) L-Alexander (2-4) SV-Colome (17)

The Minnesota Twins opened up their final home series of 2021 tonight as the Detroit Tigers came to town. A good game ensued and the Twins bullpen turned this one into a nail biter late. The Twins used their speed in the third inning to get the scoring started. Byron Buxton led-off with a walk and stole second base. He went to third on a sacrifice fly. With one out, Mitch Garver hit a sac fly to center and the Twins scored first. Pitching dominated the middle innings as Tyler Alexander threw six solid innings and Charlie Barnes had four very good innings. The Twins bats got back to work in the seventh against Jose Urena. Miguel Sano blasted a Jose Urena fastball out to left for a solo home run to double the Twins lead. Nick Gordon followed with a walk and Willians Astudillo singled to center. Max Kepler hit a sac fly to center and the Twins led 3-0 after seven innings of play. The Twins bullpen held their own as Jorge Alcala had a perfect fifth, Tyler Duffey got in and out of trouble in the sixth, and Caleb Thielbar struck out two in the seventh. Ralph Garza had a clean eighth and things got interesting when Alex Colome entered the game in the ninth. Eric Haase led-off with a single to center then Colome got the next two batters out. Akil Baddoo hit a run-scoring single to left to keep the game alive. The next batter, Jonathan Schoop hit an RBI single to center and the Tigers were within a run. Robbie Grossman struck out swinging to end the game and the Twins hung on for the win tonight. 

-Final Thoughts- Charlie Barnes did well in a spot start. He threw four shutout innings and allowed three hits with three walks and two strikeouts. Jorge Alcala struck out one in a scoreless fifth, Tyler Duffey gave up two hits in the sixth, and Caleb Thielbar fanned two in the seventh. Ralph Garza had a clean eighth and Alex Colome allowed two runs in the ninth, but still got the save. The Twins scattered seven hits and went 0-for-9 with runners in scoring position. They left five men on base. Bailey Ober was placed on the injured list with a hip injury, which ends his season. The Twins now have 70 wins and need to win three of their last five to avoid a 90-loss season. Tomorrow, Casey Mize faces Michael Pineda in Game 2 from Target Field.

Celia Cruz

Úrsula Hilaria Celia de la Caridad Cruz Alfonso, also known by her stage name Celia Cruz (October 21, 1925 – July 16, 2003), was a Cuban singer of Latin music. The most popular Latin artist of the 20th century, she earned twenty-three gold albums and was a recipient of the National Medal of Arts. She was renowned internationally as the "Queen of Salsa", "La Guarachera de Cuba", as well as The Queen of Latin Music.

She spent much of her career working in the United States and several Latin American countries. Leila Cobo of Billboard Magazine once said "Cruz is indisputably the best known and most influential female figure in the history of Cuban and Latin music".

Early life

Úrsula Hilaria Celia de la Caridad Cruz Alfonso was born on October 21, 1925 in the diverse, working-class neighborhood of Santos Suárez in Havana, Cuba, the second of four children. Her father, Simon Cruz, was a railroad stoker and her mother, Catalina Alfonso was a homemaker who took care of an extended family of fourteen.

While growing up in Cuba's diverse 1930s musical climate, Cruz listened to many musicians who influenced her adult career, including Fernando Collazo, Abelardo Barroso, Pablo Quevedo and Arsenio Rodríguez. Despite her mother's opposition and the fact that she was Catholic, as a child Cruz learned santería songs from her neighbor who practiced santería. Cruz also later studied the words to Yoruba songs with colleague Mercedita Valdés (an Akpwon santería singer) from Cuba and made various recordings of this religious genre, even singing backup for other female akpwons like Candita Batista.

As a teenager, her aunt took her and her cousin to cabarets to sing, but her father encouraged her to attend school in the hope she would become a teacher. However, one of her teachers told her that as an entertainer she could earn in one day what most Cuban teachers earned in a month. Cruz began singing at Havana's radio station Radio García Serra as a contestant on this station's popular "Hora del Té" daily broadcast, where she sang the tango "Nostalgias" and won a cake as first-place finisher. She often won cakes and also opportunities to participate in more contests. Her first recordings were made in 1948 in Venezuela.

Career

With Sonora Matancera, she appeared in cameos in some Mexican films such as Rincón Criollo (1950), Una gallega en La Habana(1955) and Amorcito Corazón (1961).

When Fidel Castro assumed control of Cuba in 1959, Cruz and her husband, Pedro Knight, were prohibited from returning to their homeland and became citizens of the United States. In 1966, Cruz and Tito Puente began an association that would lead to eight albums for Tico Records. The albums were not as successful as expected. However, Puente and Cruz later joined the Vaya Records label. There, she joined accomplished pianist Larry Harlow and was soon headlining a concert at New York's Carnegie Hall.

Cruz's 1974 album with Johnny Pacheco, Celia y Johnny, was very successful, and Cruz soon found herself in a group named the Fania All-Stars, which was an ensemble of salsa musicians from every orchestra signed by the Fania label (owner of Vaya Records). With the Fania All-Stars, Cruz had the opportunity to visit England, France, Zaire (today's DR Congo), and to return to tour Latin America; her performance in Zaire is included in the film Soul Power. In the late 1970s, she participated in an Eastern Air Lines commercial in Puerto Rico, singing the catchy phrase ¡Esto sí es volar! (This is to truly fly!).

In 1976, she participated in a documentary film Salsa about the Latin culture, along with figures like Dolores del Río and Willie Colón.

Celia Cruz used to sing the identifying spot for WQBA radio station in Miami, formerly known as "La Cubanísima": "I am the voice of Cuba, from this land, far away...I am liberty, I am WQBA, the most Cuban! (Yo soy de Cuba, la voz, desde esta tierra lejana...soy libertad, soy WQBA, Cubanísima!) During the 1980s, Cruz made many tours in Latin America and Europe, doing multiple concerts and television shows wherever she went, and singing both with younger stars and stars of her own era. She began a crossover of sorts, when she participated in the 1988 feature film Salsa alongside Robby Draco Rosa.

In 1990, Cruz won a Grammy Award for Best Tropical Latin Performance – Ray Barretto & Celia Cruz – Ritmo en el Corazón. She later recorded an anniversary album with Sonora Matancera. In 1992, she starred with Armand Assante and Antonio Banderas in the filmThe Mambo Kings. In 1994, President Bill Clinton awarded Cruz the National Medal of Arts. In the same year, she was inducted intoBillboards Latin Music Hall of Fame along with fellow Cuban musician Cachao López. In 1999, Cruz was inducted into the International Latin Music Hall of Fame in 1999. In 2001, she recorded a new album, on which Johnny Pacheco was one of the producers.

On July 16, 2002, Cruz performed to a full house at the free outdoor performing arts festival Central Park SummerStage in New York City. During the performance she sang "Bemba Colora'." A live recording of this song was subsequently made available in 2005 on a commemorative CD honoring the festival's then 20-year history entitled, "Central Park SummerStage: Live from the Heart of the City". Cruz appeared on the Dionne Warwick albums 1998 Dionne Sings Dionne & 2006 My Friends & Me with their Latin Duet version of (Do You Know The Way To) San Jose.

In March 2003, the Spanish-language television network Telemundo produced and aired a tribute special honoring Cruz, ¡Celia Cruz: Azúcar!. It was hosted by American singer Marc Anthony and Cuban-American singer Gloria Estefan. It featured musical performances by various Latin music and Anglo performers including Victor Manuelle, Paulina Rubio, José Feliciano, Milly Quezada, Los Tri-O, Estefan, Patti Labelle, Arturo Sandoval, Ana Gabriel, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Tito Nieves, Albita, Johnny Pacheco, Alicia Villareal, Olga Tañón, Mikey Perfecto, José Alberto "El Canario", Rosario, Luis Enrique, Anthony and Gloria Gaynor.

Death

On July 16, 2003, Cruz died of brain cancer at her home in Fort Lee, New Jersey, at the age of 77. Her husband, Pedro Knight (died February 3, 2007), was there for her while she was going through cancer treatments. She had no children with him. After her death, her body was taken to lie in state in Miami's Freedom Tower, where more than 200,000 fans paid their final respects. Multiple vigils occurred worldwide in cities such as Havana, Miami, and Cali (the Cali vigil became notorious in Colombian history due to its three-day span) Knight had Cruz buried in a granite mausoleum that he had built in Woodlawn Cemetery in The Bronx, New York City earlier in 2003, when she was dying. Knight chose the plot on which it stands, which is near the gravestones of Duke Ellington and Miles Davis because it was accessible to fans and had four windows built into it so that fans could see inside when paying their respects. Knight was known to share his time there with visiting fans. Knight himself was buried with Cruz in the same mausoleum following his death on February 3, 2007. An epilogue in her autobiography notes that, in accordance with her wishes, Cuban soil which she had saved from a visit to Guantánamo Bay was used in her entombment.

Legacy

In February 2004, her last album, Regalo del Alma, won a posthumous award at the Premios Lo Nuestro for best salsa release of the year. It was announced in December 2005 that a musical called Azucar! would open in Tenerife before touring the world. The name comes from Cruz's well-known catch phrase of "¡Azúcar!"

On June 4, 2004, the heavily Cuban-American community of Union City, New Jersey heralded its annual Cuban Day Parade by dedicating its new Celia Cruz Park (also known as Celia Cruz Plaza), which features a sidewalk star in her honor, at 31st Street and Bergenline Avenue, with Cruz's widower, Pedro Knight, present. There are four other similar dedications to Cruz around the world. Cruz's star has expanded into Union City's "Walk of Fame", as new marble stars are added each spring to honor Latin entertainment and media personalities, such as merengue singer Joseíto Mateo, salsa singer La India, Cuban musician Israel "Cachao" Lopez, Cuban tenor Beny Moré, Tito Puente, Spanish language television news anchor Rafael Pineda, salsa pioneer Johnny Pacheco, singer/bandleader Gilberto Santa Rosa and music promoter Ralph Mercado.

On May 18, 2005, the National Museum of American History, administered by the Smithsonian Institution and located in Washington, D.C., opened "¡Azúcar!", an exhibit celebrating the life and music of Celia Cruz. The exhibit highlights important moments in Cruz's life and career through photographs, personal documents, costumes, videos, and music.

On September 26, 2007, through May 25, 2008, Celia, a musical based on the life of Celia Cruz, played at the off-Broadway venue, New World Stages. Some performances were in Spanish and some in English. The show won four 2008 HOLA awards from the Hispanic Organization of Latin Actors.

On March 16, 2011, Celia Cruz was honored by the United States Postal Service with a commemorative postage stamp. The Cruz stamp was one of a group of five stamps honoring Latin music greats, also including Selena, Tito Puente, Carmen Miranda, and Carlos Gardel.

The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History collaborated with photographer Robert Weingarten to create an object-based portrait of Celia Cruz featuring artifacts in the museum. The portrait was unveiled October 3, 2012.

On October 21, 2013, Google honored her with a Google Doodle. At 41st American Music Awards, American singer Jennifer Lopez performed a medley of Cruz's songs.

Desde las antiguas crónicas y diccionarios Bertonio, (1612) 1984; Garcilaso, (1609) 1985; Guamán Poma (161213) 1980, se nos señala la importancia dada a la lactancia por los pobladores prehispánicos. La profusión de términos y la precisión de éstos son signos de ello. En el mundo andino prehispánico, la fiesta del corte de pelo o roto chico era a su vez la fiesta del destete (Lastres, 1951; Valdizán y Maldonado, 1922; González Carré y Galdo Gutiérrez, 1977). En esta celebración el niño recibía su nombre definitivo y era por primera vez diferenciado sexualmente por medio de la vestimenta. En definitiva, era incorporado activamente a su comunidad. Esto nos mostraría que se practicó una modalidad de destete que acontecía cuando el niño ya no requería física ni emocionalmente lactar (alrededor de los dos años de edad), modalidad difundida en todas las comunidades indígenas de América*.

Las crónicas hacen referencia al uso de galactagogos por parte de las madres andinas, entre los cuales figuraban un cocido de quinua (Chenopodium quenoa) y unos gusanos llamados ñuñu quehua (Lastres, 1951). La quinua, como veremos posteriormente es usada actualmente con el mismo fin. Es interesante notar, que el nombre, “gusano”, podría traducirse como “el que estimula o coquetea con los senos.

La práctica de la lactancia estuvo contemplada dentro de la religiosidad andina. Rostworowski (1986), describe como imagen central del templo de Pachacámac una mujer que amamanta a una zorra, hija de Añás, divinidad nocturna costeña**. Además, Cawillaca, otra divinidad femenina andina, “durante un año mas o menos crió sola a su hijo amamantándolo” (Taylor, 1987:57). En la época Inca encontramos referencias al templo de Poq’enkancha. Poq’e, según el diccionario de Lira (1945), significa calostro y kancha, lugar, recinto. De donde se podría inferir que el Poq’kancha era el lugar del principio u origen de la vida (Nolte, 1991). Estos datos señalan la importancia del calostro y la lactancia en la época prehispánica.

Un cronista indígena como Guamán Poma (1980), menciona, aunque sin extenderse, la existencia de una entidad sobrenatural vinculada a la lactancia. Esta es el duende Happi ñuñu. Happi significa “coger, agarrar” y ñuñu, “seno”. Este duende cogía con los senos a los niños lactantes, llevándoselos; lo que posiblemente fuese una forma de explicar la mortalidad infantil en la etapa de lactancia. Pero aún no contamos con suficiente información para sustentar esta hipótesis. (La etnia Aguaruna presentaba una forma distinta de relacionar lactancia y mortalidad infantil: cuando un niño moría, era enterrado con un pocillo que contenía leche materna.) [Raimondi, 1957]

La arqueología es otra fuente de información sobre los patrones de lactancia prehispánicos. Un sinnúmero de ceramios presentan escenas relacionadas con esta actividad. Carrión Cachot (ver Lastres, 1951) señala esta diversidad en ceramios para la costa norte. En uno de ellos, de la cultura Moche, se puede observar que el bebe se apoya en las piernas de la madre, quien las tiene cruzadas, sin tomarlo en sus brazos, de forma similar a lo descrito por Garcilaso (1985); esto indica la misma práctica en diferentes épocas.

En el material compilado por el doctor Kauffman (1987), de las culturas Vicús y Moche, la lactancia está asociada al coito, con preponderancia del coito anal. Cuando Garcilaso menciona la abstinencia sexual durante la lactancia, se está refiriendo posiblemente a la luz de esto último, a la abstinencia del coito vaginal. Entre el material arqueológico podemos observar la presencia de madres lactando en Chancay, Vicús y Moche, al igual que las hembras de algunos animales como venados, perras y llamas; estos ceramios no han sido revisados y analizados en profundidad para observar la posición, relaciones iconográficas, etc.

Colecho. Hombre y mujer en union sexual son representados al lado del infante, todos bajo el mismo manto. Botella mochica (1-800 d.C.)

Colecho. Es una práctica en la que los infantes duermen al lado de los padres. Esta es una práctica ancestral muy cmún en el mundo occidental. Botella Mochica (1-800 d.C.)

Lactancia y union sexual. en la mayoria de estas escenas la union sexual es anal, y por lo tanto no lleva a la fecundacion de la mujer. Esto ultimo podria estar relacionado con la infertilidad temporal postparto, como consecuencia de la lactancia exclusiva. Botella Mochica (1ñ800 d.C.)

Lactancia y unión sexual. En esta botella se representa a la pareja copulando, al mismo tiempo que la mujer da de lactar al infante. Botella Mochica (1-80 d.C.)

Lactancia prolongada. Mujer dando de lacta a infante que puede sentarse y coger el pecho con sus manos. Botella Cupisnique (1250 a.C.)

Escena posparto. Mujer desnuda dando de lactar a recién nacido. Botella Mochica (1-800 d.C.)

Mama cacao. mujer envuelta en el fruto del cacao, dando de lactac a un infante con orejeras. En el mundo andino, el consumo del agua de la cascara del cacao esta asociado al aumento de la productividad de la leche materna. Botella Mochica (1-800 d.C.)

Mujer dando de lactar. Botella Mochica (1-800 d.C.)

Madres de la élite. La presencia de pintura facial y joyas, podrían indicarnos que estas madres formaban parte de la élite política social. Botella Mochica (1-800 d.C.)

Escena postoma. El rostro del infante nos revela saciedad y alegria tras haber lactado. Vasija Lambayeque (800-1300 d.C.)

Mujer parturienta. Presenta la areola de Dubois (pezón y areola oscurecidos), señal de que el cuerpo se prepara para la lactancia. Botella Mochica (1-800 d.C.)

Mujer embarazada. Botella Mochica (1-800 d.C.)

Twins Win Third Straight Game!

Blue Jays 2 Twins 7 W-Pineda (8-8) L-Hatch (0-1) SV-Garza (1)

The Minnesota Twins returned home for their final homestand of the season tonight. The Toronto Blue Jays came to town and four meaningful games would be played at Target Field this weekend. The Jays showed their urgency in the second inning when Teoscar Hernandez led-off with a double to center. Lourdes Gurriel lined a double to center to put Toronto up by a run early. The Twins answered in the third as Byron Buxton led-off with a double and Jorge Polanco singled him home. Josh Donaldson walked and Mitch Garver followed with a run-scoring single to center. This put the Twins up 2-1 after three innings of play. The Jays got back to work in the fourth. Teoscar Hernandez drilled a Michael Pineda slider out to left for a solo homer to tie the game up at two apiece. The Twins would rally big time in the fifth. Josh Donaldson led-off with a walk and Mitch Garver doubled. Luis Arraez hit an RBI groundout to put the Twins back on top. Brent Rooker walked to bring up Nick Gordon, who smoked a Julian Merryweather change-up out to right for a three-run homer. This put the Twins up 6-2 and they never looked back. Brent Rooker ignited a seventh inning rally with a two-out double to right. Nick Gordon knocked him in with a single and the Twins lead grew to five. Michael Pineda finished off five solid innings and the Twins bullpen did the rest. Nick Vincent and Caleb Thielbar each had scoreless innings. Luke Farrell got the first two outs of the eighth then Ralph Garza bailed him out. Garza had a 1-2-3 ninth and the Twins picked up their third straight win tonight. 

-Final Thoughts- Michael Pineda had a solid night against a good lineup. He went five innings and allowed two run on eight hits with a walk and two strikeouts. Nick Vincent had a scoreless sixth, Caleb Thielbar fanned one in the seventh, and Luke Farrell got into some trouble in the eighth. Ralph Garza got the last four outs to pick up the save tonight. Mitch Garver and Nick Gordon led the way with three hits on the night. Byron Buxton added two hits as well. The Twins hit 5-for-14 with runners in scoring position and left eight men on base. Max Kepler left tonight’s game with an illness. Tomorrow, Jose Berrios faces Bailey Ober in Game 2.

Celia Cruz

Úrsula Hilaria Celia de la Caridad Cruz Alfonso, also known by her stage name Celia Cruz (October 21, 1925 – July 16, 2003), was a Cuban singer of Latin music. The most popular Latin artist of the 20th century, she earned twenty-three gold albums and was a recipient of the National Medal of Arts. She was renowned internationally as the "Queen of Salsa", "La Guarachera de Cuba", as well as The Queen of Latin Music.

She spent much of her career working in the United States and several Latin American countries. Leila Cobo of Billboard Magazine once said "Cruz is indisputably the best known and most influential female figure in the history of Cuban and Latin music".

Early life

Úrsula Hilaria Celia de la Caridad Cruz Alfonso was born on October 21, 1925 in the diverse, working-class neighborhood of Santos Suárez in Havana, Cuba, the second of four children. Her father, Simon Cruz, was a railroad stoker and her mother, Catalina Alfonso was a homemaker who took care of an extended family of fourteen.

While growing up in Cuba's diverse 1930s musical climate, Cruz listened to many musicians who influenced her adult career, including Fernando Collazo, Abelardo Barroso, Pablo Quevedo and Arsenio Rodríguez. Despite her mother's opposition and the fact that she was Catholic, as a child Cruz learned santería songs from her neighbor who practiced santería. Cruz also later studied the words to Yoruba songs with colleague Mercedita Valdés (an Akpwon santería singer) from Cuba and made various recordings of this religious genre, even singing backup for other female akpwons like Candita Batista.

As a teenager, her aunt took her and her cousin to cabarets to sing, but her father encouraged her to attend school in the hope she would become a teacher. However, one of her teachers told her that as an entertainer she could earn in one day what most Cuban teachers earned in a month. Cruz began singing at Havana's radio station Radio García Serra as a contestant on this station's popular "Hora del Té" daily broadcast, where she sang the tango "Nostalgias" and won a cake as first-place finisher. She often won cakes and also opportunities to participate in more contests. Her first recordings were made in 1948 in Venezuela.

Career

With Sonora Matancera, she appeared in cameos in some Mexican films such as Rincón Criollo (1950), Una gallega en La Habana(1955) and Amorcito Corazón (1961).

When Fidel Castro assumed control of Cuba in 1959, Cruz and her husband, Pedro Knight, were prohibited from returning to their homeland and became citizens of the United States. In 1966, Cruz and Tito Puente began an association that would lead to eight albums for Tico Records. The albums were not as successful as expected. However, Puente and Cruz later joined the Vaya Records label. There, she joined accomplished pianist Larry Harlow and was soon headlining a concert at New York's Carnegie Hall.

Cruz's 1974 album with Johnny Pacheco, Celia y Johnny, was very successful, and Cruz soon found herself in a group named the Fania All-Stars, which was an ensemble of salsa musicians from every orchestra signed by the Fania label (owner of Vaya Records). With the Fania All-Stars, Cruz had the opportunity to visit England, France, Zaire (today's DR Congo), and to return to tour Latin America; her performance in Zaire is included in the film Soul Power. In the late 1970s, she participated in an Eastern Air Lines commercial in Puerto Rico, singing the catchy phrase ¡Esto sí es volar! (This is to truly fly!).

In 1976, she participated in a documentary film Salsa about the Latin culture, along with figures like Dolores del Río and Willie Colón.

Celia Cruz used to sing the identifying spot for WQBA radio station in Miami, formerly known as "La Cubanísima": "I am the voice of Cuba, from this land, far away...I am liberty, I am WQBA, the most Cuban! (Yo soy de Cuba, la voz, desde esta tierra lejana...soy libertad, soy WQBA, Cubanísima!) During the 1980s, Cruz made many tours in Latin America and Europe, doing multiple concerts and television shows wherever she went, and singing both with younger stars and stars of her own era. She began a crossover of sorts, when she participated in the 1988 feature film Salsa alongside Robby Draco Rosa.

In 1990, Cruz won a Grammy Award for Best Tropical Latin Performance – Ray Barretto & Celia Cruz – Ritmo en el Corazón. She later recorded an anniversary album with Sonora Matancera. In 1992, she starred with Armand Assante and Antonio Banderas in the filmThe Mambo Kings. In 1994, President Bill Clinton awarded Cruz the National Medal of Arts. In the same year, she was inducted intoBillboards Latin Music Hall of Fame along with fellow Cuban musician Cachao López. In 1999, Cruz was inducted into the International Latin Music Hall of Fame in 1999. In 2001, she recorded a new album, on which Johnny Pacheco was one of the producers.

On July 16, 2002, Cruz performed to a full house at the free outdoor performing arts festival Central Park SummerStage in New York City. During the performance she sang "Bemba Colora'." A live recording of this song was subsequently made available in 2005 on a commemorative CD honoring the festival's then 20-year history entitled, "Central Park SummerStage: Live from the Heart of the City". Cruz appeared on the Dionne Warwick albums 1998 Dionne Sings Dionne & 2006 My Friends & Me with their Latin Duet version of (Do You Know The Way To) San Jose.

In March 2003, the Spanish-language television network Telemundo produced and aired a tribute special honoring Cruz, ¡Celia Cruz: Azúcar!. It was hosted by American singer Marc Anthony and Cuban-American singer Gloria Estefan. It featured musical performances by various Latin music and Anglo performers including Victor Manuelle, Paulina Rubio, José Feliciano, Milly Quezada, Los Tri-O, Estefan, Patti Labelle, Arturo Sandoval, Ana Gabriel, Gilberto Santa Rosa, Tito Nieves, Albita, Johnny Pacheco, Alicia Villareal, Olga Tañón, Mikey Perfecto, José Alberto "El Canario", Rosario, Luis Enrique, Anthony and Gloria Gaynor.

Death

On July 16, 2003, Cruz died of brain cancer at her home in Fort Lee, New Jersey, at the age of 77. Her husband, Pedro Knight (died February 3, 2007), was there for her while she was going through cancer treatments. She had no children with him. After her death, her body was taken to lie in state in Miami's Freedom Tower, where more than 200,000 fans paid their final respects. Multiple vigils occurred worldwide in cities such as Havana, Miami, and Cali (the Cali vigil became notorious in Colombian history due to its three-day span) Knight had Cruz buried in a granite mausoleum that he had built in Woodlawn Cemetery in The Bronx, New York City earlier in 2003, when she was dying. Knight chose the plot on which it stands, which is near the gravestones of Duke Ellington and Miles Davis because it was accessible to fans and had four windows built into it so that fans could see inside when paying their respects. Knight was known to share his time there with visiting fans. Knight himself was buried with Cruz in the same mausoleum following his death on February 3, 2007. An epilogue in her autobiography notes that, in accordance with her wishes, Cuban soil which she had saved from a visit to Guantánamo Bay was used in her entombment.

Legacy

In February 2004, her last album, Regalo del Alma, won a posthumous award at the Premios Lo Nuestro for best salsa release of the year. It was announced in December 2005 that a musical called Azucar! would open in Tenerife before touring the world. The name comes from Cruz's well-known catch phrase of "¡Azúcar!"

On June 4, 2004, the heavily Cuban-American community of Union City, New Jersey heralded its annual Cuban Day Parade by dedicating its new Celia Cruz Park (also known as Celia Cruz Plaza), which features a sidewalk star in her honor, at 31st Street and Bergenline Avenue, with Cruz's widower, Pedro Knight, present. There are four other similar dedications to Cruz around the world. Cruz's star has expanded into Union City's "Walk of Fame", as new marble stars are added each spring to honor Latin entertainment and media personalities, such as merengue singer Joseíto Mateo, salsa singer La India, Cuban musician Israel "Cachao" Lopez, Cuban tenor Beny Moré, Tito Puente, Spanish language television news anchor Rafael Pineda, salsa pioneer Johnny Pacheco, singer/bandleader Gilberto Santa Rosa and music promoter Ralph Mercado.

On May 18, 2005, the National Museum of American History, administered by the Smithsonian Institution and located in Washington, D.C., opened "¡Azúcar!", an exhibit celebrating the life and music of Celia Cruz. The exhibit highlights important moments in Cruz's life and career through photographs, personal documents, costumes, videos, and music.

On September 26, 2007, through May 25, 2008, Celia, a musical based on the life of Celia Cruz, played at the off-Broadway venue, New World Stages. Some performances were in Spanish and some in English. The show won four 2008 HOLA awards from the Hispanic Organization of Latin Actors.

On March 16, 2011, Celia Cruz was honored by the United States Postal Service with a commemorative postage stamp. The Cruz stamp was one of a group of five stamps honoring Latin music greats, also including Selena, Tito Puente, Carmen Miranda, and Carlos Gardel.

The Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History collaborated with photographer Robert Weingarten to create an object-based portrait of Celia Cruz featuring artifacts in the museum. The portrait was unveiled October 3, 2012.

On October 21, 2013, Google honored her with a Google Doodle. At 41st American Music Awards, American singer Jennifer Lopez performed a medley of Cruz's songs.

Morgan Silences Twins To Even Series.

Indians 1 Twins 3 W-Morgan (2-5) L-Ober (1-2) SV-Clase (17)

The Minnesota Twins continue to play solid baseball during a (8-3) stretch. The Twins have picked up two walk-off wins and have had more fun lately. Tonight a pitcher’s duel broke out as Eli Morgan and Bailey Ober threw up zeroes for the first four innings. Yu Chang started the fifth with a double to right and Daniel Johnson crushed a Bailey Ober fastball out to right for a two-run homer. This put the Indians up by a pair of runs halfway through the game. The Indians added on in the sixth when Amed Rosario led-off with a single to right. Jose Ramirez reached on a fielder’s choice, where everyone was safe. The next batter, Wilson Ramos hit a sac fly to center field and Jose Ramirez was doubled off first on the play. Cleveland had a three-run lead after six innings of play. Meanwhile, Eli Morgan was dominant over six scoreless innings. Bryan Shaw had a clean seventh, but Trevor Stephan struggled in the eighth. All three batters he faced walked before he exited the ballgame. Jorge Polanco plated a run on a fielder’s choice and the Twins were on the board. James Karinchak escaped the jam and the Indians still had a two-run lead as we headed into the ninth inning. Emmanuel Clase fanned two in a 1-2-3 ninth and the Indians evened up the series at a game apiece tonight. 

-Final Thoughts- Bailey Ober had another solid start tonight, but didn’t get any run support. He went six innings and allowed three runs on five hits with three strikeouts. Ralph Garza had a scoreless seventh and Nick Vincent struck out three over two shutout innings. Jorge Polanco had two of the four Twins hit tonight. The team hit 0-for-9 with runners in scoring position and left seven men on base. First base coach Tommy Watkins and hitting coach Edgar Varela have been away from the team after testing positive for COVID. Varela went back home to Florida to help out family members affected by COVID. Tomorrow, Zach Plesac gets the start for the Indians, but the Twins might have a bullpen game. It was Michael Pineda’s turn in the starting rotation, but he’s sidelined with an oblique strain.
