Perdomo Stadium, supported by a relentless attack that erased any chance for the rival.\n\nIt was a demonstration of offensive strength that set the tone from the start of the weekend’s games, in which Granjeros, Mineros and Bravos had a 2-1 record.\n\n\n

On Sunday, the Mocanos reasserted their dominance at the Bebecito del Villar in Bonao, where they defeated the Mineros 6-5 thanks to the bat of Cristopher Familia, who hit a home run and a double to drive in two, in addition to a solid contribution from Gilberto Jim\u00e9nez with two runs scored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\nThe victory went to Jorge Gonz\u00e1lez, solidifying the top of the table.\n\nLos Reales de Santiago (11-6), who have already secured their place in the semifinals, had a weekend of contrasts. On Friday, they fell 9-4 to the Bravos at the Estadio Ol\u00edmpico de La Vega, in a duel where starting pitcher Edwin Ad\u00f3n was punished with seven runs in just two innings.\n\nHowever, on Saturday, the Reales recovered with authority at the Berto Polonia stadium in Santiago, blanking the Bravos 7-0 with a brilliant performance by Jean Henr\u00edquez, who pitched four scoreless innings with eight strikeouts. That triumph reflected the strength of their pitching and defense, sealing their mathematical classification.\n\nThe Bonao Miners (8-9) starred in the biggest emotions of the weekend at the Jos\u00e9 Brice\u00f1o Stadium in Puerto Plata.\n\nOn Friday, a home run by Omar Meregildo in the ninth inning turned the score around to win 8-7 over the Atl\u00e9ticos, with the win going to reliever Anderson Vargas.\n\n\n

On Saturday, on that same stage, the Miners shone again by defeating the Athletics 9-4, this time with the credit going to Miguel Guerrero from the mound. With that streak, Bonao climbed to third position for the first time in the season, half a game above Puerto Plata.<\/p>\n\n\nOn Sunday, at home, the Miners narrowly lost 6-5 to the Farmers at the Bebecito del Villar, despite the hits by Jomar Reyes, who hit two doubles. Even so, the team remains with firm options to qualify, depending on themselves.\n\nThe Atl\u00e9ticos de Puerto Plata (9-9) had a bitter start with their two losses against Bonao at the Jos\u00e9 Brice\u00f1o, but reacted on Sunday at the Berto Polonia stadium in Santiago, where they defeated the Reales 5-2. Starting pitcher Juan Luis Mart\u00ednez worked six solid innings after giving up two runs in the first inning, and the offense backed him up in the middle innings to seal a vital victory.\n\nThe Bravos de La Vega (6-11) were also protagonists. On Friday, at the Olympic Stadium, they surprised Santiago with a 9-4 victory thanks to the arm of Mario Germ\u00e1n, who pitched six quality innings. On Sunday, in that same park, they defeated the Arroceros 10-7 with an offense led by Starlin Javier (5-4, 3 runs, 2 RBIs) and Randy Bravos (4 RBIs).\n\nThe San Francisco Rice Growers (5-12) pulled off one of the weekend’s surprises by defeating the Farmers 6-4 on Saturday at the Braga\u00f1ita Garc\u00eda Stadium, taking away their home undefeated streak with Franmy Almonte’s offense and Yoelvis Polanco’s effective relief.\n\nHowever, on Sunday they lost 10-7 to the Bravos at the Ol\u00edmpico, finishing last in the table.\n\nEach park on the circuit witnessed emotions: the Ram\u00f3n A. Perdomo in Moca, the Berto Polonia in Santiago, the Jos\u00e9 Brice\u00f1o in Puerto Plata, the Braga\u00f1ita Garc\u00eda and the Ol\u00edmpico in La Vega hosted defining matches that stirred the fight for the semifinal tickets.\n\nAt the end of the day, the standings were with the Farmers (13-5) as solid leaders, followed by the Royals (11-6) a game and a half behind. Further back, the Athletics (9-9) occupy third place, with the Miners (8-9) half a game behind. The Braves (6-11) and the Rice Growers (5-12) are practically out of the race.\n\nWith Moca and Santiago already qualified, the magic number for Puerto Plata and Bonao is two, which means they are on the verge of completing the group of four. The semi-final will be played in a round-robin format, with six games per team and a ticket to the final for the top two.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
