Yasmany Tomás knocked in four runs via a double and double to lead Los Mochis to a 10-0 blanking of the Guasave in the Liga ARCO playoffs. “El Tanque ” as he is known by the Cuban faithful has now hit 34 homeruns in three seasons in the Mexican circuit.
Odrisamer Despaigne tossed six scoreless innings of five-hit ball during the Yaquis de Ciudad Obregón’s 2-1 win over the Naranjeros de Hermosillo to take a 1-0 lead in their seven games series in the playoffs. Although he did not factor in the decision the Cuban right-hander was stellar.
Yadiel Hernández went yard for the first time of the playoffs in four trips to the plate, while also driving in a run in Mexicali’s 9-7 victory over Jalisco. The Águilas also took a 1-0 in their postseason series and the outfielder now hits .500 after the first game of the playoffs.
