"Vibrante Pasión por el Béisbol Dominicano: El Impacto de Peligro Sports en Nueva York" - The Athletic

WASHINGTON HEIGHTS, NY — Una vez que entras a Peligro Sports, algo se hace evidente por encima de todo: si alguna vez necesitas una gorra, una camiseta o un jersey de uno de los seis equipos de la Liga de Béisbol Profesional de la República Dominicana, conocida como LIDOM, este es el lugar ideal.

When it comes to LIDOM gear, whether you’re a diehard fan born and raised in the Dominican Republic, part of the Dominican-American diaspora in the United States, married into a Dominican family or just a collector who can never have enough baseball caps, finding merchandise, especially the caps, is way harder than it should be.

Options for merchandise are limited. You can go to a live game and check the stadium stores or try your luck at a Dominican mall. You can visit the official LIDOM website, but it often sells out. Or, just slightly less fun than a trip to the Dominican Republic, you can go to Peligro Sports, a baseball merchandise mecca centered around LIDOM, MLB, the World Baseball Classic and Latino pride. (Can’t make it to Washington Heights? Peligro is also on Amazon and eBay).
