The Hunters of Artemis showed that they can win, and now it’s time for revenge!
For now, in the first inning, Yulieski González’s pupils receive zero: Yoel Mogena retires the three batters faced without problems.
And Raymond Figueredo did the same with the Crocodiles: one, two and three. The first inning ends 0-0.
The revenge has begun!
The game is 2-0. After the ticket to Cepeda, consecutive doubles by Dennis Laza and Raúl González. Next, José Antonio Jiménez is out, but is followed by a hit by Osbel Pachecho, which brings the possible score to within 90 feet of the rubber. The Yumurino launcher explodes.
Eriel Carrillo enters and forces Andy Cosme to hit into a double play. Anyway, the Hunters are already ahead.
It’s up to the Crocodiles to bat, and they receive another zero! There was a hit by Rusney Castillo, followed by a timely and quick double play.
And Yoan Moreno opens the third with a jit through the center of the field. But between Manduley and Arruebarruena they convert Luis González’s ground ball into two outs: a new gem of this combination! Immediately afterwards, Carrillo strikes out Dayán with a huge curveball.
Once again, the rojiamarillos appeared at bat… and once again they received zero. The reinforcement from Industriales Raymond Figueredo is advancing calmly.
For the hosts, however, there was no peace at the beginning of the fourth: a walk to Cepeda, a wild pitch that took him to second and another free walk for Dennis Laza. Carrillo left and left two runners in circulation with no outs. His place was taken by Haykel Parra.
Then, Raúl González took a long fly ball that overtook Cepeda. A hit to Jiménez filled the bases. And Cosme pushed two!
The game 4-0! Rematch!
The Crocodiles returned to the batter’s box, and only received one more zero. Figueredo domain.
He led off the fifth with a walk to Luis González, so Jonder Martínez calls Noelvis Entenza. Fourth pitcher for Matanzas. And Dayán grinds the ball against the fence. Corridors in the corners. Cepeda hits into a double play, but the third man scores.
The lead is extended: 5-0
The film was repeated at the end of the fifth episode: another hideout for Matanzas. And the reinforcement chosen by Yulieski used just 54 pitches in five innings: less than eleven for each one!
The sixth brought another Artemisean threat, with hits from Jiménez and Cosme, but they failed to score.
Matanzas did achieve it: he had two singles and, unfortunately, the ball hit the pitcher, who had to leave the mound to Osdany Rodríguez.
After throwing out Manduley, Ariel Sánchez drove in two with a tubey. The game was 5-2. Then, he dominated Yurisbel Gracial. And Yordanis Samón drove in the third: 5-3! Yulieski did not think twice to bring Liván Moinelo and quell the rebellion.
Entenza also dominated: Artemisa received zero in the top of the seventh.
Immediately afterwards, it was Moinelo’s turn to show off, with a pair of fastballs at 95 miles and a strikeout of Noroña.
And very quickly he retired the next two batters. It is not his habit to launch so early, but he is economizing deliveries.
Eighth inning. Already close to the end.
Raúl González singled. José Antonio Jiménez received a ticket. Pacheco gave up the second out, while Raulito ran to third. And Cosme arrived, but this time it couldn’t be.
The hosts will come to bat: they have two chances left. Consecutive strikeouts to Manduley and Dariel Álvarez, who after crossing with fastballs… he broke their waists with curves. Ticket to Gracial, out to Samón and Artemisa is already three away from victory.
Armando Dueñas closes the ninth for Matanzas. Moreno touches the ball and reaches base. A shrapnel from Luis González, Noroña gets tangled with the ball and Cortico reaches the plate. It’s the score: 6-3!
