In last night’s action the Aguilas halted Estrella’s five-game winning streak with a 5-3 victory. The deciding moment came when the game was tied at three all when a wild pitch and two singles brought in the game-winning 4th and 5th runs. In last night’s other game the Licey and Gigantes were able to keep it on the field as Erick Aybar hit for the cycle, pushing Licey to a 10-9 victory after an 18-inning marathon. In last night’s final game the Leones were able to muster out a 6-4 victory against the Toros. It has been a season of struggles for the Leones with little hope for improvement as the season enters its final weeks. <\/p>\n
