In game 2 the script is different, but the final result is still favorable to San Marino Baseball. Doriano Bindi’s men beat Fiorentina 8-0 and thus closed the first weekend of the championship with two wins and zero defeats, while at the same time keeping immaculate the scoreboard under the points suffered.
In the evening game, three points arrive immediately in the first inning, but from then on the Tuscan starter Martin Perez will be able to be very effective in harnessing the home clubs. The 3-0 remains so until the fifth, when San Marino scores 4-0. The four points of the seventh round round off any comeback hypothesis. On the mount of the Titans there is a spectacular Carlos Quevedo, who in his 5 innings barely concedes a valid and above all eliminates 13 opponents from the pot. After him, two innings for Kourtis and two for Baez without conceding points.
THE CHRONICLE. The first ring of the game is from Gozzini, who hits a nice double in the first inning. In any case, Quevedo maintains control and thereafter puts in 10 consecutive strike-outs (13 in total out of 15 eliminations) leaving no room for visiting batters. The San Marino attack works immediately, as in the afternoon. At the 1st here are three points: singles by Ferrini, Angulo and Celli (1-0), also valid for Tromp (2-0), Reginato hit and bouncy of Albanese’s 3-0.
The game gets on the right track but the Florentine starter, Oregsis Martin Perez, plays an excellent match and the score remains the same for the first four rounds. At 5th, however, here is another score with Celli’s double that sends Angulo to the point (4-0). Fiorentina try to return in the 6th, the second inning of Kourtis, with an excellent start (two on base and zero out), but also with the defense that remedies thanks to a double defensive game on Biffoli and Rassizad who goes strike-out .
Having escaped the danger, San Marino definitively extends in the lower part of the seventh with four points. The first arrives with Epifano’s rebounding with full bases (5-0), the second with Nicola Garbella’s sprint (6-0), third and fourth with Di Fabio’s valid (8-0). These are the last sharp points of a match closed on the two-innings mountain without smudging by Fernando Baez. It ends 8-0, brace for San Marino.
