Tigers humilliate Eagles to put them against the wall

Dominican Winter League Final Series 2006 - Game 4

Cibao Eagles 5 at Licey Tigers 13

The fans of the Tigers (me included) celebrated big their blowout victory yesterday in what could've been the last home gome for Licey this season. The duo "the minors" rocked the Eagles pitching once again.

Licey did what has been their strategy throughout the finals... Stay close against the starter pitchers, then pound the eagles weak bullpen, while our bullpen closes the game.

Now, even though NO ONE gave them as favorites, they're one game away of becoming the 2005-2006 champions, and reclaiming the crown to become once again the maximum winners in dominican league history...

For Licey: Anderson Hernández triple, double and single; Otañez, 3 hits; Calzado, 2 hits, including a double; Rubén Rivera and Carlos Ruiz, a double each

For the Eagles: Miguel Tejada 3 hits; Polonia a pair of singles.
