Cuba's Alfredo Despaigne rounds the bases after hitting his winning three-run home run during the 10th inning against the US in the final game of the World University Baseball Championship at Tokyo's Jingu Stadium on Aug. 7, 2010. Cuba won the final 4-3. One of the most popular baseball stars in his nation, many wonder whether or not he would leave to play in the US if awarded a multimillion dollar contract by an MLB team.
