As many expected, with high temperatures and emotions, it is the seventh clash of the Grand Final of the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League (LVBP), between Navegantes del Magallanes and Caribes de Anzoátegui.
Until now, a duel with few goals has been witnessed at the Alfonso “Chico” Carrasquel Stadium, where the starters, Édgar Castillo for the home side and César Jiménez for the visit, do a good job.
The former pitches 3.1 scoreless innings despite 3 walks and 3 hits on loan. The second meets 4 acceptable entries with a couple of lines under his responsibility.
LVBP Final: Caribes strike the first blow
At the end of the second, the first slugger, Willians Astudillo, is hit and after the strikeout for Asdrúbal Cabrera, “La Torguga” advances to the intermission due to a wild pitch from Jiménez. Tomás Telis responds with an RBI hit of 1, then Jesús Sucre also dispatches uncatchable.
On their third offensive chance, the Navegantes have a single by Carlos Pérez, who then advances to second after an error on the first throw by the pitcher. With 2 outs, Cade Gotta walks, while Alejandro De Aza makes a wild line drive to center, despite this, Pérez is immolated at the plate with an accurate shot from Rafael “Balita” Ortega.
Final LVBP: Magallanes gets the reaction but…
After 1 out in the fifth section, Cade Gotta silenced the fiery Caribbean and unleashed the euphoria of the Magellan, this by dispatching a solo home run to left field.
Anzoátegui’s response is immediate before the new pitcher, Robert Zárate, he gives consecutive walks to Luis Sardiñas and Víctor Reyes, in this dangerous scenario, “Balita” sacrifices himself, to move the runners, leaving the turn to captain Niuman, which gives sacrifice line to the left to tow the new lead.
The Blues are not far behind and open the sixth with hits in a row by Pablo Sandoval and Ángel Reyes, Rayder Ascanio draws a ticket, with the house full, Pérez grounded the shortstop good for a double play, however Cabrera sinned by not keeping the distance by Luis Sardiñas, his error allows Reyes to score and leaves the bases loaded.
Faced with such a dangerous situation, Esteban Haro maintains his composure to dominate Alberto González and Gotta.
