Juan Padron

Juan Padron was a pitcher with the Cuban Stars during the 1918, 1919, and 1921 seasons and with the Chicago American Giants in 1924. He is shown here in what I think is a Cuban Stars uniform associated with New York. There is an "NY" visible on his cap. Thanks, Jabez54, for bringing him to my attention. I'm guessing that the older encyclopedias had attributed some of those years in the Negro Leagues to Luis Padron, but the research behind the Seamheads database has updated the records and has discovered that Juan Padron was the pitcher with these teams during these later years. The older encyclopedias and registers didn't list Juan Padron.
