MSC Cruises To Host Baseball Greats, Big Band Themes On 2010-2011 Caribbean Cruises

MSC Cruises reprises its popular popular Baseball Greats and Big Band theme cruises aboard MSC Poesia for the 2010-11 Caribbean cruise season.

Baseball Greats
Departing from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the Baseball Greats theme cruise includes free interactive guest/player activities. Participate in a player-hosted trivia game where guests test their baseball knowledge, question-and-answer sessions with the players, and a guest pitching contest. Be entertained during lively story-telling sessions where they share some candid revelations about “characters” of the game. Players will also host pitching, hitting, fielding and base running clinics. The free autograph session at the end of the cruise is an extremely popular activity among the guests onboard. The player line-up on these itineraries will be announced at a later date. Caribbean cruises featuring the baseball theme include:
