The Tigres del Licey shut out the Gigantes del Cibao 7-0, and will thereby enjoy the home-field advantage for the final playoffs of the Dominican Winter League Championship. The Aguilas Cibaenas scored their second come-from-behind victory of the season, defeating the Estrellas Orientales 7-6 in the Tetelo Vargas Stadium in San Pedro de Macoris. The loss was the seventh in a row for the Estrellas who simply collapsed after leading the Round Robin tournament halfway through. The Estrellas went from 7-3 to 7-10, and finished out of the money.
