SANTO DOMINGO, República Dominicana (AP) — El zurdo Wandy Rodríguez lanzó eficientemente por cinco entradas, Rymer Liriano remolcó tres carreras el lunes y los Tigres del Licey aplastaron por 14-3 a los Leones del Escogido, en la serie semifinal del torneo de béisbol invernal dominicano.
Rodríguez (1-0) lanzó cinco entradas, en las que limitó a los Leones a dos carreras y siete hits, otorgando un boleto y con seis ponches, mientras que el Licey volvió a desplegar una ofensiva temible para ganar su sexto juego en forma consecutiva.
Liriano bateó de 3-2, con tres remolcadas, mientras que Ozzie Martínez, Joey Terdoslavich y Anderson Hernández remolcaron dos vueltas cada uno, para motorizar la ofensiva de los ganadores.
Zoilo Almonte también aportó con tres anotadas y una remolcada, mientras que Diory Hernández agregó una impulsada en la victoria.
La derrota fue para Kelvin Villa (1-1) agotando una labor de dos entradas y un tercio en las que le conectaron cuatro indiscutibles y toleró tres carreras. Villa otorgó dos boletos y abanicó a un hombre.
Los Leones han perdido cuatro juegos en forma consecutiva, luego de haber ganado sus primeros tres.
Por los Leones, Lew Ford conectó un doble y remolcó dos carreras.
En San Pedro de Macorís, Adrián Salcedo tiró buena pelota y Jordany Valdespín sacó la bola del parque para que las Estrellas Orientales vencieran por 2-0 a los Toros del Este.
Salcedo (1-1) lanzó seis entradas y limitó a seis hits, sin carreras, a los bates de los Toros, para darle a las Estrellas su tercera victoria consecutiva. Salcedo otorgó un boleto y ponchó cinco en su salida.
Edgar García, José Valverde y Wirfin Obispo completaron la labor monticular y la blanqueada con la que las Estrellas empataron con los Leones en segundo lugar.
Valdespín pegó un jonrón solitario en la primera entrada y Audy Ciriaco empujó la otra carrera en el tercero con un elevado de sacrificio, para las Estrellas.
La derrota fue para Angel Castro (0-1) pese a una buena labor de siete entradas, con seis hits y dos carreras. Cedió una transferencia y ponchó uno.
Tras la jornada, Licey (6-1) lidera la semifinal, seguido de Leones (3-4), Estrellas (3-4) y Toros (2-5). El martes se enfrentan Estrellas-Leones y Licey-Toros.
