Main Points
Gilberto Celestino hit a decisive double in the 10th inning to lead the Toros del Este to a 5‑4 victory over the Estrellas Orientales at the Estadio Francisco A. Micheli. With the score tied 4‑3, the Toros rallied in the final frame. After a single by Juan Brito, which brought Wilmer Difó to the plate, Celestino launched a long double between the center and right‑field fences, allowing Difó and Brito to score and securing the win for the home team. The win improves the Toros’ record to 7‑11, bringing them closer to the fourth‑place spot occupied by the Estrellas, who finished 7‑10. Deyni Olivero made a strong debut for the Toros, pitching four scoreless innings with one walk and one strikeout. He was relieved by the bullpen, which allowed four earned runs and six unearned runs over six innings, with four strikeouts. Lucas Sims earned the win, while Jhan Mariñez took the loss after surrendering the two decisive runs in the 10th. Scoring summary: The Toros took a 2‑0 lead in the third inning on sacrifice flies by Ronny Simón and Bryan De La Cruz. Francisco Urbaez extended the advantage with a solo home run in the fourth. The Estrellas tied the game 3‑3 in the fifth after a defensive error by Simón. In the top of the 10th, César Prieto hit a double that brought in Euribiel Ángeles, giving the Estrellas a 4‑3 lead before Celestino’s double. Key offensive performances: Urbaez went 4‑3 with a double, home run, and two RBIs; Celestino finished 5‑2 with a double, two runs, and a stolen base; Rafael Lantigua was 2‑2 with one run; Simón went 2‑1 with a single. For the Estrellas, José Tena hit two home runs in four at‑bats; Josh Lester went 4‑2 with a double and a run; Prieto finished 5‑1 with a double and a run.
