Main Points
On Sunday, the Roberto Clemente Professional Baseball League (LBPRC) saw three teams secure victories. The Cangrejeros of Santurce defeated the league‑leading Gigantes of Carolina 12–11 in a 10‑inning contest. The game was tied 11–11 at the end of the ninth inning, and the tie‑breaker rule placed a runner in scoring position for both teams. Veteran Cangrejeros catcher Juan Centeno pinch‑hit and grounded into the infield, advancing designated base‑runner Derick Andiarena to third. Anthony García then hit a base hit to right field, driving Andiarena home for the winning run. Cangrejeros catcher Brian Navarreto went 5‑for‑5, hitting a home run, driving in five runs, and scoring four; he finished one double shy of a cycle. García went 4‑for‑5 with three runs scored and two RBIs. The win was credited to Santurce right‑hander David Lebrón (1–0); Carolina right‑hander Albert Oliva took the loss (0–1). The loss marked Carolina’s first defeat of the season, dropping their record to 4–1. In another Sunday game, the Leones of Ponce beat the Senadores of San Juan 8–4 at Hiram Bithorn Stadium. Ponce right‑hander Harold Cortijo earned the win (1–0) after pitching two scoreless innings, while San Juan right‑hander Sidney Duprey took the loss (0–1) after allowing two runs in two‑thirds of an inning. Juan Marcano recorded his first save of the season for the Leones. After San Juan’s Antonio Jiménez hit a home run to tie the game 4–4 in the bottom of the second inning, Ponce broke the tie two innings later with a two‑run double by Colton Becker. Jacob Reimer followed with a two‑run home run in the sixth inning, extending the Leones’ lead to 8–4. At Isidoro “Cholo” García Stadium in Mayagüez, the Criollos of Caguas defeated the Indios 9–2, marking their second win of the season. Caguas catcher Onix Vega went 3‑for‑5, driving in a run and recording an RBI. The Criollos opened the game with a five‑run rally. Left‑hander Jorge Benítez earned the win (1–0) after pitching one and one‑third innings in relief, allowing only one hit and striking out two. Indios starter Kazuto Taguchi was charged with the loss (0–1) after allowing five runs in just two‑thirds of an inning. The defeat left Mayagüez with a 1–4 record.
