With today’s defeats by Pinar del Río and Ciego de Avila, the unbeaten teams in the young Cuban baseball season came to an end and only Camagüey remains winless in four outings.
Holguin broke the winning streak of the Tigres of Ciego de Avila with a 5-0 shutout, which was noted on the resume of reliever Ramiro Rodriguez (3.1 IP, 4K, 2BB) in a game played without errors.
The day before, the Tigres of Ciego de Avila gave the first blow to Holguin Cachorros.
The Tuesday score for the visitors (six runs) was too far to reach for the local squad, a single one.
No unbeaten teams in 2024 Cuban baseball season
The pitchers of Ciego de Avila silenced the offense of Holguin Cachorros, who could only hit three hits and score a solitary run while their rivals scored six, although only three clean ones.
This Thursday they will play again at Calixto García stadium, to take Friday off and come back to that ballpark on Saturday and Sunday.
From wikipedia:
Holguín, Spanish pronunciation: [olˈgin]) is a municipality-city in Cuba. After Havana, Santiago de Cuba, and Camagüey, it is the fourth largest city in Cuba.
Before Columbus, the Taino people settled in huts made from royal palm in the Holguin area later urbanized by the Spanish; their artifacts are shown at the local Holguin La Periquera museum.
The settlement was founded in 1523 on land donated by Diego Velázquez de Cuéllar to Captain Francisco García Holguín, a Spanish military officer.
