The Navegantes del Magallanes docked first in the Round Robin

A seven-touchdown streak in the fifth inning gave the Navegantes del Magallanes a 10-6 victory over the Leones del Caracas, in the last meeting between the Eternal Rivals in the regular season.

The triumph Valencian plus the defeat of the Tigres de Aragua in Maracay, a short time later, made La Nave the first club to qualify mathematically for the Round Robin. He reviewed the LVBP.

Taking into account all the combinations that can be given in the five remaining games of the regular calendar, some will reach 23 losses and Magellan could only lose 22 times.

Magallanes hit the hairy men with an 18 hit offense. But the peak moment of the game occurred in the upper part of the fifth section. Jhonny Pereda took turns with three men in circulation, with no outs. He hit a roll that was taken by third baseman Alberto González who started a triple play at full speed to finish the episode, in combination with the waiter and the first baseman.

Sharks soar in Maracay

La Guaira had its first comeback after a long drought by beating the Tigres with a score of 6-4 at the José Pérez Colmenares de Maracay.

The salty team, who arrived at the meeting on the ground floor of the standings and whose pitching has been the victim of several comebacks in this tournament, orchestrated a surprise attack in the ninth inning that sentenced the challenge with five scores in their favor.

Caribs repeated on Aguilas

Liarvis Breto, left-handed starter for Caribes de Anzoátegui, struck out 10 batters in just over five innings to lead his club to a 4-2 win over Águilas del Zulia at Alfonso “Chico” Carrasquel Park in Puerto La Cruz.

This result, combined with the 6-4 fall of Tigres de Aragua in Maracay against Tiburones de La Guaira, led to a tie for fifth place in the standings between Bengalis and Aborigines. This tie -even- is established just half a game from the fourth place occupied by Bravos de Margarita. The insular ones march with a record of 20-20, while Aragua and Anzoátegui walk with 20-21.
