One of the first black professional team was the Cuban Giants. Although the players were not Cuban, the team played in Cuba in the winter. When the team was sold, a falling out caused the team to split. The Cuban X Giants were formed in reference to being "ex Giants" and quickly became better than the original team. The X Giants were founding members of one of the first Negro Leagues; the National Association of Colored Baseball Clubs of the United States and Cuba.
