Elite League

Havana, November 2 (ACN) -- With an offense of 15 hits and complete pitching by Joel Mojena, the Agricultores team knocked out Portuarios 11-1 in seven innings and retook the top of the First Elite League of Cuban Baseball, which on Tuesday began its fourth particular sub-series.

As locals at the Mártires de Barbados stadium (Bayamo), the disciples of the mentor Carlos Martí made a decisive cluster of eight runs in the sixth inning, to achieve the second out of combat of the young tournament.

On offense, the current leader of the batters, Alexquemer Sánchez, who went 3-2 with a home run and two runs batted in, stood out.

The victory went to Joel Mojena, who scattered the seven hits received during the game and struck out three.

Agricultores' triumph joined the setback of yesterday's leader Ganaderos, who lost 2-5 to Cafetaleros, as hosts at the José Antonio Huelga Park in San Luis Potosí. The rain came in the sixth inning and the game could not be continued.

For the coffee representatives, their third bat and center fielder Yoelkis Guibert, who hit 2-2, with a double and a tow, stood out.

Wilson Paredes was successful, despite allowing six hits in 5.0 innings; but the Ganaderos were not opportune in their swings against the Teammate.

Finally, Centrales gave a 3-0 defeat to Tabacaleros, supported by the deliveries of the Villaclareño right-hander Alain Sánchez, who in 7.0 episodes limited the opponent's offensive spending to four singles with three strikeouts included.

At the Augusto César Sandino stadium (Santa Clara), the three runs scored by mentor Armando Ferrer's team came in the fourth inning. Ariel Sanchez stood out in the batting box by going 4-2, with a double.
