Although Yunesky Maya tossed five scoreless innings in which he allowed only a hit and fanned six, but the right-hander from Pinar del Río, Cuba did not factor in the decision of Campeche’s 7-3 loss to Yucatán. Maya has yet to allow a run this season in 10 innings pitched.
For Yucatán Yadir Drake helped the Leones to a victory with two RBIs and Lázaro Alonso went yard for the second time on the season and drove in four runs for he Leones, the first baseman homered for the second straight day.
Yasiel Puig homered in five trips to the plate, knocked in a run and scored a run in Veracruz’s 9-4 win over Querétaro. Luis Avilés Jr also helped the cause with a hit and two runs scored. The infielder is hitting a robust .381 on the season.
