Upon entering the Saturday round of the Round Robin, we find a situation is polarized between three groups: Caribes de Anzoátegui, Navegantes del Magallanes and Cardenales de Lara. The panorama is broadened a little more with the results of the scheduled meetings.
In a heated and closed meeting, Navegantes del Magallanes and Cardenales de Lara measure forces with the intention of hurting the other and seeking first place in the standings.
Cardinals take advantage
During their third offensive chance, the red birds assume control of the board, a situation that would not change for the rest of the game.
Jermaine Palacios starts with a single, after 2 outs he reaches the anteroom with an uncatchable by Gorkys Hernández and scores with a hit by Yordanys Linares. The second of that inning is towed by Juniel Querecuto upon obtaining a passport.
Then in fourth they add 1 more and after 2 outs. Alí Castillo sounds simple, Ramón Flores imitates him and enters the race after an error in shooting by the left ranger, Ángel Reyes.
This work is short but appropriate to support the work of starter Nestor Molina, who is reunited with his good form and manages to dominate a high-danger offense like that of the Blues.
The right covers the route for a space of 5.1 innings allowing only 2 hits, 1 run that is clean, gives 1 walk and strikes out 5.
The Navegantes only violate their effectiveness in the sixth, this by hitting 4 consecutive hits, the first against him and the following against Luis Madero on the bats of Cade Gotta, Alberto González, Pablo Sandoval and Reyes.
From that point the twilight relief corps rectifies and appeases the Magellan canyons again. Jean Machí (1.2), Yapson Gómez (1) and Vicente Campos (1) leave the electricians in 2 unattainable.
The victory goes to the records of Molina (1-0, 5.56), the rescue for Campos (4, 0.00), while the misstep is the responsibility of the starter Junior Guerra, he does not do it all badly by allowing 3 lines, clean , in 5.2 innings of 5 walks and 1 strikeout.
With the result, the Cardinals (7-3) swept the Navigators (6-4) in all four games and combined with the defeat of the Caribes (6-3) against Tigres (4-6), they ascended to the leadership of the Round Robin.
