In group D1, Cagliari e Padova they try to continue their momentum respectively with Ciemme Oltretorrente e Metalco Dragons Castellana, last in the standings with no victories. Eyes turned to Hermes Gonzalez for the players from Padua after the 22 strikeouts of the past week against a team in difficulty in attack, but with good ideas on the mound. The Oltretorrente will try to violate the unbeatenability of Angioi and companions on the Iglesias field. In Piedmont they are looking for redemption and tranquility in the ranking Seventhbeaten by the Sardinians last weekend after two hard-fought challenges, and the Tecnovap Verona which continues a year between ups and downs after the midweek defeat against Padua.
Very hot weekend in group E1 where the margins are very tight for missteps. Saturday afternoon, theEcotherm Brescia is on stage, as home team, in Ronchi dei Legionari against the New Black Panthers and, after the double defeat in Senago, she is called to an undertaking against the Nardi-Rodriguez couple and against a team that wants to dispel any doubts about their stay as soon as possible. Sunday will be the turn of Platform-TMC Poviglio e Senago in a match – truth about both teams and in which the role of the foreign pitchers of the Emilians (Almora and Medina) will be of fundamental importance. In Rovigo, Itas Mutua e Sultan Cervignano they try to escape from the jaws of the bottom of the standings with a double significant confrontation between two teams that had already faced each other in the initial phase of the championship (double success of Cervignano).
In the F1 group, the Milan New Rimini try the home feat against the Comcor Modena, undisturbed leader of the group after the sweep with marathon included against Crocetta (who is resting this weekend). The Romagna, with a Carrillo in excellent condition, he tries to join the pieces of the puzzle to straighten the ranking situation that will have a further movement in the weekend with the challenge to the “Pillar” of Bologna between OM Valpanaro Athletics Bologna e Ermes Sala Baganza Fountain, fresh from the first success of the year against Rimini in the last round played two weeks ago. The solidity of the pitching staff and the continuity of the two lineups will hold court in two very important games for the salvation speech.
Similar plot in group G1 in which the direct clash at the bottom of the standings in Riccione between Falcons Quarry Tower e Longbridge represents a potential crossroads for both teams, still unsuccessful in Poule Salvation. The two teams divided the stakes in the confrontation carried out during the first phase. In the other challenge of the group theAcademy of Neptuneafter the two victories of authority against the Bolognese of Longbridge, but with the aim of not sitting on any kind of laurel, will be guest of the Big Mat BSC Grosseto 1952 who has every intention of temporarily settling in the lonely head of the group rankings with a sweep at home. The Grosseto team drew the series against Macerata also thanks to the excellent performance of Sireus on the platform and will try to continue a season in which they represent one of the revelations.
