Batter up! Winter baseball starts tonight
The Dominican Winter Baseball League begins its schedule at the Estadio Quisqueya this evening, Thursday 15 October 2015 when two of the nation's oldest teams n the Tigres Del Licey and the Leones Del Escogido - face off. Jordan Norberto has been chosen by manager Luis Rojas to open the first game of the winter baseball season in the Dominican Republic when the Leones host the Tigres. Manager Luis Rojas, a lifelong member of Escogido, announced his opening-day pitcher during a meeting with a small group of sports reporters at a Santo Domingo restaurant yesterday, Wednesday 14 October 2015. Rojas singled out several of the up-and-coming players who are expected to see action this season. General manager Moises Alou was not present because he was out of the country, but his assistant Jose Gomez said that because of the large size of the Estadio Quisqueya they have chosen many of their reinforcements based on their on-base percentage rather than on their power numbers. Tomorrow evening, Friday 16 October 2015 the Aguilas Cibaenas will meet the Gigantes Del Cibao, last year's champions, and the Estrellas Orientales will play the Toros Del Este.
