David Rodríguez gave the first two lines to La Nave with a home run to the left, but Yojhan Quevedo would equalize it immediately with a double that would boost Rangel Ravelo and Juniel Querecuto. This tie would not last long, as Luis Torrens would take it out of the park and take David Rodríguez and Moisés Gómez with him.

A Javier Sanoja single in the fourth and a Rayder Ascanio fielding error in the fifth would give Lara his last two runs. On Magallanes’ part, a hit by Ascanio in the fourth inning, a home run by Moisés Gómez in the fifth, a single by David Rodríguez and a second home run by Gómez in the eighth would conclude Magallanes’ beating.

The filibusters are still alive in the fight to sneak into the top two places in the table. With a record of 5 wins and 6 losses, they are a game and a half behind the Leones del Caracas, second place, and two of La Guaira Sharks.
