Main Points
Luis “Pipe” Urueta, manager of the Águilas Cibaeñas, said the team’s offense has struggled to find its rhythm early in the season after a 6‑2 defeat to the Tigres del Licey on Saturday at Estadio Cibao. The game began with a two‑run homer by Jorge Bonifacio in the first inning, giving the Águilas a brief lead. However, Urueta noted that the offense failed to sustain the momentum against the Licey pitching staff. “Things looked good, but the offense fell apart right away. We didn’t manage to keep deciphering or taking advantage of the moment with Vladimir Gutiérrez,” he said. Urueta said the lack of offensive production is not limited to this single game but has been a recurring issue in the early matches of the campaign. He attributed the problem to key players not delivering the expected performance. “Key players who have proven themselves in the league still haven’t done the job, and that makes it difficult for any team,” he explained. Despite the setbacks, Urueta urged patience and continued effort. “We need to be patient and keep working. We’re doing everything we can to bring that good moment and offensive spark back as soon as possible,” he added. Article source: El Nuevo Diario | Image credit: El Nuevo Diario
