Yasiel Puig is being the most fundamental player in the Tiburones de La Guaira in the postseason, in which the salty team has 5 wins in 5 appearances. Last weekend they swept the Caracas Lions with the Cuban as the protagonist.
The islander made a great catch in left field that ended a threat by the Lions, who in the end lost 4 runs to 2 to put their record at 2 wins and 3 losses at this stage of the season.

“We still have 11 games left to play, but we are on the right track. Today (Sunday) we did little things both in hitting and pitching, as well as in defense, and we were able to win. “We are taking the steps to be able to achieve that championship that will bring joy to the fans of La Guaira, who reside in Caracas and Macuto, because they have been waiting for joy for 37 years,” the Cuban said to Televen.
Puig left an average of .418 in the regular round, with 10 home runs and 23 RBIs in just 25 games played. In the playoffs he has a .429 average, with a home run and 3 RBIs for La Guaira.
“One must contribute in defense and attack. Since practice we are focused on the team winning and that is why I do those types of actions. This LVBP is a great league and I thank the Tiburones management for letting me be part of this experience”Puig explained.
