Licey played hard ball
Santo Domingo .- Catcher Matt Tupman hit RBI single in the seventh inning to bring the race rubber that gave him victory 6 to 5 on the Licey Tigers to the Toros del Este, in a match full of options held at the Quisqueya Stadium. Reliever Onelio Perez managed to save a dangerous situation in the ninth, when the Bulls threatened, scoring a run.
Perez scored his tenth rescue of the season, while fellow reliever Carlos Perez (1-0) notched its first win of the tournament and the substitute pitcher Luis Valdez (3-1) suffered its first setback.
Foursquare movement with a runner on blue receptor Salvador Paniagua in the fourth inning off shipments of the Bulls starting pitcher Wesley Wright was instrumental in the Tigers victory that evened the score at four runs.
The last night of the Licey victory was his number 16 and were placed ½ games of first place that keep the Toros (18-11) along with Leones del Escogido (18-11) won last night 3-1 to the Giants Carolina, match played in Puerto Rico as part of interleague play.
