The Havana Lions, entrenched in their home field at the Latinoamericano Stadium, will seek their third consecutive victory today against the Las Tunas Lumberjacks. To move closer to the top of the 64th National Baseball Series.
The blue team reignited their fans yesterday with a 3-2 victory. Decided by a home run from Roberto Álvarez in the eighth inning off reliever Keniel Ferráz. A hit that unleashed euphoria in the stands of the Coloso del Cerro.
Álvarez was the offensive hero of the game with two RBIs. Supporting the pitching performance of Raymond Figueredo. Also who worked seven innings with five strikeouts and two runs (one unearned). The win went to Rafael Orlando Perdomo, while Frank Herrera closed out the game with authority to record his seventh save of the season.
With that victory, Industriales improved to 28-16 and took advantage of the rain delay in the game between the league-leading Holguin Cubs and the Matanzas Crocodiles to move within one game of first place.
Elsewhere in the day’s action, the Mayabeque Hurricanes dominated at Augusto César Sandino Stadium. Defeating the Villa Clara Leopards 8-5 with a 14-hit offensive that keeps them in pursuit.
The Artemisa Hunters once again triumphed over the Santiago Wasps. This time 13-10 at 26 de Julio Stadium, with a devastating 17-hit attack. At Cándido González Stadium, the Camagüey Bulls routed the Sancti Spiritus Roosters 6-4. While at José Ramón Cepero Stadium, the Ciego de Avila Tigers dominated the Cienfuegos Elephants 5-2.
The Vegueros of Pinar del Rio, meanwhile, routed the Indios of Guantanamo 11-1 with outstanding performances from Alexei Ramírez and William Saavedra. At Cristóbal Labra Stadium, the last-place Piratas of Isla de la Juventud surprised the Alazanes of Granma with a 6-4 victory.
Weather permitting, the Cubs and Cocodrilos will attempt to resume play today with a doubleheader at Calixto García Stadium. In a series that could redefine the top of the standings.
