The Aguilas Cibaeñas of the Dominican Republic They flew very high and ‘picked the tomato’ in the Teodoro Mariscal Stadium, taking the Tomateros from Culiacán de México, in what was the third and final game of the second day of the Mazatlán 2021 Caribbean Series.
Félix Fermín’s Dream Team made their mark in this 2-0 event, as did Panama. Mexico is 1-1. ‘La Cabra’ César Valdez showed that he knows Mexican baseball very well and dominated the Aztecs at will, resorting to a great extent to his breaking pitching full of bow tie and jiribilla, hieroglyphs not deciphered by Benjamín’s TRI Gil.
THE BREEDS
The Dominican Republic took the lead in the top of the third inning when Melky Cabrera singled to left field with one out, Robinson Canó followed to put Cabrera ahead and scored with a single to the center of Ronald Guzmán for the point. From the pool.
The Aguilas Cibaeñas rose to 2-0 in the sixth, where Guzmán walked and after two-thirds, Junior Lake reliever Jesús Castillo Ripalda doubled to center, riding in Guzmán.
In the seventh section, the visitors went 3-0 with a homerun through the right field by Juan Lagares, his second in the tournament, after he had blown the wall against Puerto Rico on Sunday, but through the right field.
Los Quisqueyanos made it 4-0 in the ninth; There, with two cases already, Jonathan Villar doubled to the left and single-stepped the pentagon to the same steppe of Cabrera.
Mexico caused drama and made the finish unfit for heart failure by scoring two runs in the bottom of the ninth, RBI’s to the right of Jesse Castillo and another similar hit by pinch-hitter Julián León. Efrén Navarro and Isaac Paredes scored, in that order.
PITCHEN
The feathered starter, César ‘La Cabra’ Valdez (1-0), fed the Mexican attack in his hand, which looked like meek little lambs. Valdez threw six two-hitter innings and six strikeouts. He was also followed by veterans Wirfin Obismo, Jumbo Díaz, Fernando Abad and Jhan Mariñez ditches, in that order. The latter scored the save by dominating pinch-hitter Juan Carlos Gamboa with a grounder to second.
For Tomateros, Héctor Velázquez started (0-1, 1.93) on the mound of responsibilities, which lasted four innings with two-thirds of four hits, one score (zero), four walks and a single magic potion.
Javier Arturo López, Jesús Adrián Castillo, Carlos Torres and Gonzalo Sañudo helped him. Except for Castillo, they all let them run.
