7 Jul 2021 Famed pro-baseball player and manager Ozzie Guillen came to the United States from Caracas, Venezuela, when he was 16-years-old and later became a U.S. citizen on his 42nd birthday — a feeling he still remembers fondly. “It’s special,” said a teary-eyed Guillen during a White Sox pre-game interview. “People, they don’t know how hard that is. How many people die… How many people want to be American. It’s [an] honor for me.” An emotional Ozzie Guillén reflects on the day he became an American citizen in 2006. "It's special. People don't know how hard that is. How many people die … How many people want to be American. This is an honor for me." @OzzieGuillen ���� pic.twitter.com/ify8wan8zb
