On Sunday the Aguilas defeated the Leones 15-6 in the Parque Quisqueya, breaking the home field unbeaten streak of the Leones and ending their own two-game skid. Massive hitting, mixed with adequate pitching did the job for the Aguilas, still bottom feeding in the standings. Over in La Romana the Tigres took a rare game from the mighty Toros, winning 11-3. Erick Aybar got three hits as the Tigres got their first win over the Toros. In San Francisco de Macoris the surprising Gigantes picked on the lowly Estrellas Orientales 7-3, keeping their second place position and assuring that the San Pedro team stays in the cellar.
