Adolis García went yard for the eight time on the season, while also knocking in two runs and scoring on time on the evening to do his part in Texas’ 4-3 win over Cincinnati. The outfielder from Ciego de Ávila, Cuba with his 25 RBIs is first among Cubans and second in the American League in this statistical category.
Yennier Cano notched his sixth hold of the season after tossing a scoreless inning in relief during Baltimore’s 7-6 loss to Oakland. The right-hander also fanned a batter, over his last seven games Cano posts a 2.25 ERA and has struck out 10 batters.
Although the Marlins fell 12-9 to the Nationals, Nick Fortes knocked in a run during his four trips to the plate via a first inning single. The Cuban-American has now driven in three runs on the season and broke a slump that saw him hitting .211 over his last seven games.
