Félix Pérez smacked his 13th homerun of the year in four at-bats, drove in a run and scored on another occasion to lead Tijuana a 3-1 over Dos Laredos. The slugger from the Isle of Youth is fourth in the Liga Mexicana de Béisbol with 33 RBIs and also leads the circuit in longballs with 13.
Yosmany Guerra had two hits in as many trips and drove in a run, but his best efforts could not save Campeche from a 4-2 loss to Quintana Roo. The shortstop from Havana is now hitting .338 on the season and also sports a robust .846 OPS.
Peter O’Brien stroked two doubles and knocked in a run, but Puebla still fell to Aguascalientes 6-3. The Cuban- American slugger watched his average jump to .348. The native of Miami now has 26 runs batted in on the season and is third in the LMB with a 1.128 OPS.
