The Wasps of the East split against the Crocodiles of Matanzas yesterday, when bad weather conditions prevented them from playing four games on the calendar.
More than 20 matches have already been suspended due to rain, a situation that has led the organizers of the national series to make the decision to change the schedules on several dates.
A note from the National Baseball Commission released this Wednesday afternoon informs that during the rest of the competition the final games of each subseries and those scheduled for Saturday and Sunday will take place starting at ten in the morning.
In the doubleheader played in Santiago de Cuba this Wednesday, early morning pitcher Renner Rivero put up a complete win (7.0 INN, 2CL, 5H, 4K and 1BB) for the Matanceros 4-2 and took away the veteran undefeated Alberto Bisset after six victories in the campaign.
In their next game, the Wasps answered the now second-place national team 6-2 with airtight reliever Jaime Pelegrín, who allowed no runs or hits in four innings and signed his first hit in the national series. The Matanzas pitchers, in addition to allowing six hits, including a home run by Euclides Pérez, showed poor control in the second game, giving away 11 walks in six innings.
At the Latin American Stadium in the Cuban capital, the Vegueros de Pinar del Río left the Industriales’ winning streak at four with a 4-3 win led by the bat of William Saavedra (4-2, 2CI), who hit 158 home runs of his career .
Villa Clara topped the mid-table again after beating Sancti Spiritus’ Gallos 7-1 at their Sandino estate in the central city of Santa Clara.
Young Raidel Alfonso (8.0 INN, 1CL, 2H) has not struck out or walked a Sancti Spiritus man, but remained dominant throughout, to the point of working five perfect innings before catcher Carlos Chávez broke the spell with his first home run for life.
Ciego de Ávila failed to capitalize on his match against Guantánamo, which occupies the last place in the order, and lost by KO 16-6, a match in which the Indians showed batting power with four clubs in full round , two of them on the count of Robert Luis Delgado.
The matches between Holguín-Artemisa, Mayabeque-Las Tunas, Granma-Cienfuegos and Camagüey-La Isla could not take place due to bad weather in Cuba’s eastern region.
Dopo Santiago de Cuba (34-24) is Artemis (31-24), Las Tunas (30-24), Mayabeque (31-25), Matanzas (32-26), Sancti Spirits (29-27), Blind of Avila (28-27), Villa Clara and Holguin (29-28), Industriales (29-29), Pinar del Rio (28-28), La Isla (26-28), Granma (27-30), Camaguéy ( 25-31), Cienfuegos (22-35) and the Guantanamo scantinato nello (20-36).
