In one of the most exciting post-season finishes in recent history, the Toros and Gigantes will play a tie-breaker game to determine who will play for the league championship. The last two weeks of the winter league Dominican baseball classic have been one for the ages as the once mighty Aguilas had their wings clipped while the once perennial cellar-dwelling Toros are fighting with the Gigantes for a chance at the league championship. During last week’s play the Tigres guaranteed themselves a spot in the finals, which left the Toros and Gigantes to battle it out for the final stop. Over the weekend the teams battled it out and with a Sunday win against the lowly Aguilas, the Toros guaranteed one more game.
