Cotton growers forced to win

MEXICO CITY.- If they do not want a situation in which they would literally have to come out of the underworld (0-3), the Guasave Cottoners will seek today at home the first victory of the final series of the Mexican Pacific League that will be He denied them against the Cañeros de Los Mochis, who continue to be inspired in their stadium this postseason (7-0).

They will have to pass on the Pitcher of the Year of the regular calendar, Luis Fernando Miranda, who will face the American Matt Pobereyko, strikeout leader of the circuit (73) in the regular role in which he was a starter in Mexican baseball for the first time.

Miranda was 5-1 and 1.05 in earned runs on the season and 1-0 and 3.38 in four playoff starts, while his opponent was 6-2 and 2.05 in ERA in 13 assignments and 1-0 and 3.13 in four starts in first phase and in the semifinals against Sultanes de Monterrey and Naranjeros de Hermosillo, respectively.

IN January 2021, in the playoffs of the pandemic season, the third baseman of the Cañeros, Rodolfo Amador, went down in history as the only reinforcement who said “no more” to his new team, the Naranjeros de Hermosillo, baffled by not being able to hit the pitching of the Venados de Mazatlán.

But baseball almost always gives another opportunity and the Baja California Sur native took advantage of it in the summer of 2022 back to Monclova (.315, 10, 54) and in the Arco League with the Cañeros (.308, 5, 38). .

In 13 days of the current postseason, including the final series, Amador is hitting .288 and has only hit one home run and sent four to the rubber. But that “whole stick”, lonely at the bottom of the ninth chapter, made the fans of Los Mochis enjoy celebrating the second victory of the greens over the Algodoneros.

A day like today, in 1982— In Hermosillo, doubles by Jerry Hairston and Alvin Moore drove in the eighth inning to lead the Naranjeros to a 3-1 victory over Águilas de Mexicali, in the second game of the Mexican League final from Pacific. The series will change the stage tied 1-1.
