Rafa Viñales LasTunas VS CMG beisbol Cuba oct2020 0009Las Tunas.- Una nueva salida de calidad de Dariel Góngora, además de la rebelión ofensiva en las postrimerías sirvieron de catalizadores para el triunfo 10x0 de los Leñadores ante los Cocodrilos, mediante la vía del fuera de combate en ocho episodios.
Durante los dos primeros tercios del duelo, Góngora escudó la ventaja de dos carreras, obtenida en el capítulo de apertura, con una labor sin anotaciones, seis hits y par de ponches. Por segunda ocasión en la presente campaña el agramontino sirve de “látigo” ante la tropa yumurina para apuntarse el quinto éxito.
La suerte del séptimo acto se hizo sentir en las arcas tuneras, mediante un rally de seis carreras. Jonrones de Rafael Viñales, el octavo en el calendario, y Dánel Castro, junto a un biangular remolcador de tres “hachazos” de Yordanis Alarcón significaron la fuerza motriz para que la nave verdirroja ampliara diferencias. El slugger Viñales quedó a una impulsada de la treintena y continúa al frente del departamento, como mismo sucede con los cuadrangulares. 
El invicto de Yamichel Pérez se quebró con solo subirse al box del estadio Julio Antonio Mella. El zurdo, pitcher derrotado, apenas acumuló un inning en la hoja de ruta, mientras toleró cuatro imparables y dos “rayitas”. El relevo flaqueó en los últimos compases y, similar a un castillo de naipes, el desenlace final cayó por su propio peso.
Por su parte, Rubén Rodríguez volvió a silenciar la estruendosa artillería de Matanzas. El holguinero, con poca velocidad y derroche de gallardía, completó la ruta sin dificultades. La actuación le valió el primer salvamento.
Los acontecimientos de la jornada ubican a Las Tunas (14-13) en abrazo con Artemisa en la tercera plaza a medio punto del segundo escaño ocupado por los Gallos de Sancti Spíritus. Asimismo, el cruce directo con los líderes posibilita disminuir las distancias, cuando apenas restan 13 desafíos para concluir con la etapa clasificatoria.
