Gigantes del Cibao (9-8) 3, Aguilas Cibaenas (6-11) 0 - Noelvi Marte's three-run homer in the third inning combined with heavy rain was all the Gigantes would need to move a game above .500. Starter Wily Peralta threw three scoreless, hitless innings, walking two and striking out three, and Cristopher Molina earned the win, going 2 1/3 scoreless innings in relief. In the top of the sixth, Steward Berroa hit a one-out double for the Aguilas, bringing Jasson Dominguez to bat as the rain intensified. Out came the tarp, and after a 47-minute delay, the game was called.
