The torrid bat of the “Atomic Ant”, Luis Polonia, continued to move the Aguilas Cibaenas up the leader board of the Dominican Winter Baseball League. Last night the Aguilas defeated the Tigres de Licey 7-4 at the Juan Marichal Quisqueya Stadium. This is the sixth win by the Aguilas over the Tigres in their seven meetings. Polonia, with a homer, triple and single, was one of three Aguilas that hit home runs, as Willy Mo Pena and Danny Tamayo followed. Bernie Castro contributed three more hits for the Aguilas.<\/p>\n
In other action, the Estrellas Orientales shut out the leading Leones de Escogido 5-0 in San Pedro de Macoris and the Azucareros of La Romana defeated the hapless Gigantes de San Francisco de Macoris 7-4. Korean pitcher Jung Bong shut out the Leones for six innings, allowing only two hits as the Estrellas scored two runs in the third inning to eventually beat the Leones 5-0. In San Francisco de Macoris, the big leaguer Felix Heredia closed down the bats of the Gigantes and won his fourth game of the new season.<\/p>\n
