Liga Mexicana de Beisbol: Sultanes de Monterrey, Toros de Tijuana Running Neck-and-Neck In Zona Norte; Leones de Yucatan Drop 11th Straight

Tigres de Quintana Roo (10-12) 6, Conspiradores de Queretaro (10-11) 3 – Miles Simington hit a solo homer and Manuel Boscan hit a three-run homer in a four-run sixth inning as the Tigres topped Queretaro in the series opener. Diosbel Arias got Quintana Roo on the board with a two-run homer in the fourth, and Tigres starter Brady Tedesco went five innings, allowing a run on four hits and a walk, recording four strikeouts. Rainel Rosario and Dwight Smith Jr. each homered for Queretaro.

Pericos de Puebla (14-8) 12, Bravos de Leon (14-8) 2 – Starter Antonio Santos threw six scoreless innings, allowing three hits, a walk, and striking out seven as the Pericos took the series opener and caught up with the Bravos atop the Zona Sur. Michael De La Cruz went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer, Danny Ortiz and Samar leyva each hit solo homers, and Estamy Urena hit a two-run shot for the Pericos in the blowout.

Piratas de Campeche (10-12) 3, Leones de Yucatan (7-15) 0 – Like Nigel Tufnel’s amplifier, the Leones de Yucatan’s losing streak went to 11 Tuesday night. Hitting continues to be a problem for Yucatan, which only got six men on base during the game, going 0-for-3 with runners in scoring position and never threatening. Campeche starter Jon Olsen struck out five and allowed one hit over five shutout innings, and Felipe Perez hit a two-run homer for the Piratas.

Guerreros de Oaxaca (14-9) 3, El Aguila de Veracruz (10-13) – Veracruz got a run in the bottom of the ninth when Corey Rosier scored on a wild pitch, but they couldn’t get Cesar Izturis Jr. home with the tying run as the Guerreros won their 14th game of the season. Yariel Gonzalez and Juan Santana each hit solo homers for Oaxaca, and Yonathan Daza singled home Ricardo Valenzuela in the fifth for what stood as the winning run.

Acereros de Monclova (11-10) at Caliente de Durango (10-11) – The game was suspended due to rain in the top of the second inning with the Acereros leading 1-0. It will resume today prior to the second game of the series with Eric Filia on second base and Jacob Rhinesmith at bat with a 2-1 count with two outs in top of the second.

Olmecas de Tabasco (10-12) 4, Diablos Rojos del Mexico (12-10) 2 – The Diablos’ losing skid hit four games with the series-opening loss to Tabasco Tuesday. Yunior Severino’s two-run single in the fifth got the winning run home, and Agustin Ruiz and Jasson Atondo each had RBI singles for the Olmecas. Jose Marmolejos hit his first homer of the season, a solo shot in the top of the third, for the Diablos.

Tecolotes de los Dos Laredos (10-12) 7, Algodoneros de Union Laguna (10-12) 4 – Zoilo Almonte hit a three-run homer and drove in another run with a sac fly as the Tecos got past Union Laguna. Cade Gotta and Luis De Los Santos each had three hits for Dos Laredos, and starter Tyler Ivey went 5 2/3 innings, allowing two runs on five hits and a walk, striking out six. Mason Martin had three RBIs for the Algodoneros.

Sultanes de Monterrey (15-7) 4, Rieleros de Aguascalientes (13-9) 2 – Manny Banuelos allowed one unearned run on three hits over five innings for the Sultanes and Josh Lester hit a three-run homer as the Grey Ghosts won for the 15th time this season, keeping pace with first-place Tijuana. Leonel Valera drove in both runs for Aguascalientes, hitting a two-run homer in the seventh.

Saraperos de Saltillo (6-15) 4, Charros de Jalisco (11-11) 3 – Chris Carter’s sixth homer of the season tied the game at three apiece, and then a sacrifice bunt by Drew Stankiewicz scored Armando Alvarez with the go-ahead run as Saltillo took the series opener from the Charros. Oscar Campos had a solo homer for Saltillo, and Manny Barreda allowed one unearned run and struck out four in 4 1/3 innings of work for the Saraperos.

Toros de Tijuana (15-6) 5, Dorados de Chihuahua (8-14) 4 (10 Innings) – Junior Lake’s RBI single in the bottom of the 10th scored Jack Mayfield with the game-winner as the Toros kept a half-game lead on the Sultanes in the Zona Norte. Justin Turner went 2-for-4 with a homer and three RBIs for Tijuana, and starter Adonis Medina threw five innings, allowing five hits, two walks, a single run, and striking out six for Tijuana.
