Il Parmaclimate vince 2-1 and extends the series a gara7. Sunday, at 8.30 pm, at the Serravalle stadium the final challenge of the Italian Baseball Series for the award of the Scudetto. Decisive in the success of the ducals was the performance of louis lugo, who in 6 rounds conceded only one valid, and one point, to the San Marino line-up. The starter of the Emilians is the winning pitcher of race 6, with Kourtis losing and Habeck author of the salvation.
THE CHRONICLE. The first team to put a man in the point position is San Marino, which in the lower part of the 1st has Batista in first after a base ball and in second on Ferrini’s bunt. Immediately after, however, Angulo is eliminated on the fly in diamond and Lino remains at the plate. Meanwhile, Dimitri Kourtis saves great at 2nd on a situation of full bases and an out (Talevi and Battioni strikeout), but must capitulate at 3rd. On Koutsoyanopulos there is an error by the defense, Desimoni goes with the single, Gonzalez is eliminated at the plate and Mineo finds a sacrifice sprint to the right that is worth 1-0.
At 4th the guests double thanks to Battioni, who with Rodriguez in second (base ball and advancement) and two outs, finds the valid on the right which means 2-0. On the San Marino mountain it is the turn of Baez, who will no longer grant arrivals to the base until the end of the game, thus scoring ten eliminations out of ten men faced. Meanwhile, the attack of the titans, which in the first three innings had gone to base only at the beginning with the four balls to Batista, finds a way to be effective in the lower part of the 4th. For Ferrini there is the base ball and immediately after Angulo finds the first valid match of the match for San Marino. It is a single on the right, with Angulo himself trying to get to second position and with the host defense to eliminate him, but also with Ferrini to score the 1-2 in the meantime.
Fifth and sixth inning pass quickly, while in the 7th, on the Habeck relief, here is the last opportunity. Angulo starts with a hit on third base, while Lino and Celli finish strikeouts. Ustariz keeps hopes alive with a valid right. To beat there is Epifano, whose bouncy, however, ends up prey to the defense of Parma for the out in second. Parmaclima wins 2-1, we go to game7.
