Elefantes Top Leopardos, 8-4
The Cienfuegos Elefantes stopped the Santa Clara Leopardos, 8-4, behind an impressive performance from Ignacio Larios. The top prospect made life miserable for Santa Clara pitching. He went 3 for 4 with 2 doubles. The winning pitcher was Ramón Melgar. He tossed 153 pitches over 8 innings, allowing 4 runs on 7 hits. At 44-38, the Elefantes find themselves in first place in the Torneo del Oriente División de Santa Clara.

Early in the game, center fielder Juan Navarro had a 2-run triple for Cienfuegos. It was his 9th triple of the season and put the Elefantes on top, 2-0.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Larios.
