Báez offers free meals to hurricane victims in native Puerto Rico

On Sunday, Hurricane Fiona made landfall in Puerto Rico, bringing with it massive flooding and winds that P.R. Governor Pedro Pierluisi described as “unprecedented.”

Puerto Rico Baseball Jersey native Javier Báez is doing his part to help his home country through this unprecedented time, as the Tigers’ shortstop posted on Instagram prior to Monday’s 11-0 win that he’s offering free meals to anyone in Puerto Rico who was impacted by the hurricane.

While no deaths have been reported because of the hurricane, millions of Puerto Ricans are without power due to the wind and rain. Up to 22 inches of rain have already fallen in some areas of Puerto Rico, with the potential of another four to eight inches of rain looming. The island is also still recovering from Hurricane Maria in 2017, which destroyed the island’s power grid and killed nearly 3,000 people.
