"El Caballero" (The Gentleman) was an all-around outfielder, who often dazzled the fans with acrobatic catches and hit the ball with great authority. His best years were from 1928-30 when he won two batting crowns with averages of .432 and .380. In 1923 he teamed with Oscar Charleston and Pablo Mesa on the Santa Clara ballclub to form the greatest outfield in Cuban Winter League history; in fact, that was a team comparable to the 1927 Yankees since it also included Jose Mendez, Dobie Moore, Oliver Marcelle, Oscar Johnson, and Eustaquin Pedroso. Oms was enshrined in the Cuban Baseball Hall of Fame in 1944.
