It seems that at the beginning of the Major League season, the Venezuelans made themselves felt on the long-awaited Opening Day, in the match between the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Miami Marlins that would last 12 innings with a 6-5 victory.
Maikel García, Anthony Santander, Oswaldo Cabrera and Edward Olivares were the first Creoles to hit full return hits.
Olivares, who entered the match in Miami in the seventh inning as a replacement for Rowdy Tellez, went out in his first shift.
He got it out of Miami reliever Andrew Nardi with a long drive that reached 413 feet across center field, making the game 5-3.

Luzardo worked for 5 innings, allowing only 2 hits, two earned runs, walking two and striking out 8 opponents.
