Big night for Cubans in Japanese baseball league

Tokyo, Jun 2 (Prensa Latina) The small Cuban legion had a great night today in the Japanese baseball league, where they all celebrated victories with their respective teams.

Catcher-starter Ariel Martínez was the leading scorer in the Nippon Ham Warriors’ 8-2 victory over the Yomiuri Giants, going 4-3, with a home run, double, two runs scored, three runs batted in, and a run batted in.

Also, outstanding for the winners were Dominican hitters Arismendy Alcántara (4-2, run scored) and Alen Hanson (1-1, home run), as well as his compatriot Bryan Rodríguez from the mound, who allowed a single with no runs in one inning.

Cuba’s closer Raidel Martínez also stood out, who allowed a scoreless single in an inning in which he struck out two.

Martinez could not get the save or the win for the Chunichi Dragons because he was successful 2×1 in 11 innings, but he kept his clean runs average (0.00) in 18 chapters unblemished.

Finally, his compatriot Liván Moinelo did not allow any hits or runs in one inning, with two strikeouts, in SoftBank Falcons’ 5×1 victory over Hiroshima Carps.
