MIAMI – Tiburones de la Guerra demonstrated their credentials as one of the favorites to win the Caribbean Series early on Thursday by defeating Tigres del Licey 3-1 in the opening day’s main clash.
Thus the Dominican Republic faltered in the competition in which it comes as the current monarch.
This is the first time that the tournament bringing together the champion teams of the Caribbean and Mexican Winter Leagues has been held in a Major League stadium: Longport Park, home of the Florida Marlins.
Miguel Romero gave up just one run in five innings and third innings to give Venezuela the win. Raúl Valdés took the loss after allowing one score in four and third innings.
Alexi Amarista hit an RBI single to start the scoring in the third inning, and Ramon Flores extended the lead with another timely single in the sixth.
The Tigers got closer when veteran Robinson Cano drove in a run with a sacrifice fly. Another former major league star, Cuba’s Yasiel Puig, won the game for the Sharks with a solo home run in the eighth inning.
“It was an honor to win a championship in Venezuela after 37 years with the Sharks, but now the goal is to win the Caribbean Series, because Venezuela has not won it for 15 years,” Puig shared.
The Dominican team will try to respond this Friday, when it faces Nicaragua on the second day of the tournament.
“We know we have the talent, that wasn’t the case today and we have to give credit to their pitching. We are going to try to be as prepared as possible for tomorrow’s opponent, we are going to try to make adjustments to go out and compete to win,” said Tigres driver Gilbert Gomez.
