Las Aguilas del Tamiami start the season with a right foot and for the first time in team history the team is over .500 after beating La Vinotinto 4-2. Kyle Roberts pitched for 8 2/3 innings dominating the whole game the power hitters from La Vinotinto, but after allowing the only two runs in the ninth Coach Cabrera turned to Michael Vazquez who strikes out the hitter to finish the game and earned the save.
The game was a pitching duel during the first 7 innings. From Vinotinto Miguel Ortiz threw 8 innings and was charged with the lost after giving up 4 earned runs. Kyle Roberts dominated the entire game, just one player reached third base before the 9th inning. Offensively Cesar Echaverry got on base 3 times with 2 hits and a base on balls same as Luis Ramos who got 1 hit and two walks. Also Pedro Lugo, Angel Mestre and Luis Ramos had 1 RBI each. The team in general showed an excellent defense who plaid the entire game without an error, Echaverry was phenomenal doing unbelievable plays at shortstop.
Last but not least the league handed the trophies from the past season where Aguilas Alex Gonzalez and Xavier Gomez received one trophy each. Gomez was honored as the League Leader in triples. For Gonzalez is not his first or second but his 3rd straight Stolen Base title. Also Cesar Ramirez was awarded as the MVP, Ramirez played for Chinandega last season and will be playing with Las Aguilas as soon as he gets the opportunity.

Aguilas Fly High Over Habana In Extras
I Dont Believe What I Just Saw! Oh My WOW
Las Aguilas del Tamiami came from behind and won their 4th straight game with a walk off single by Cesar Echaverry. Something unbelievable happened last Sunday in Field 4 at Tamiami Complex where Las Aguilas won their 4th straight game in a way none one could imagine. Nine innings were not enough for this two teams who came to this game unbeatable in their last 3 games. The game lasted 12 innings (4:43 min). Kyle Roberts started the afternoon for Las Aguilas against Habana who sent former Ace of Miami Dade College Michael Martinez. Roberts went 7.0 innings allowing 6 runs (3 ER) including a solo shot by former AA player Raciel Seijo. Angel Cortes threw 4 2/3 innings in relief and Ernesto Borbon got the win (1) after getting the last out in the top 12th.
Las Aguilas were looking to get the win to get closer to La Vinotinto who owns the last spot to qualify for the playoffs, meanwhile in Field 3 Vinotinto faced the Angels. Knowing the importance of this game this is how it went for Las Aguilas. The first innings of the game were dominated by Habana who jump to an early start getting 3 runs unearned (3-0HBN). In the bottom of the six Las Aguilas scored their first run (3-1 HBN). In the top seven Habana answered with 3 more runs (6-1 HBN). After that Las Aguilas immediately scored another run to put the game (6-2 HBN). Angel Cortes threw the 8th in relief retiring Habana's hitters 1,2,3. With 6 outs away of losing the game Las Aguilas scored a run with a double of Gilbert Garcia then Fabian Hance launched a enormous home run over the right field fence (6-5 HBN). Cortes came back to the mound and closed the ninth inning without problem. In the bottom part Tony Cash got on base by an error of third baseman allowing Cash go to second and later scoring with the help of Alex Gonzalez tying the game with two outs (6-6 TIED) By this time Vinotinto had lost (5-2) meaning that a victory for Las Aguilas could put the team just 1 game behind. Deinnys Suarez (AAA Cubs) and Ariel Beltran (AAA Orioles) pitched during the extra frame for Habana while Cortes was dominating. After 3 innings with no actions and more controversial calls against Las Aguilas. in the top 12 Habana took advantage of Cortes fatigue and scored 3 runs out of him. Ernesto Borbon came to get the last out for Las Aguilas leaving the game (9-6 HBN). In the bottom 12 Suarez kept his dominances striking out Hance and Renzo Rodriguez. With two outs Coach Cabrera send to pinch hit Luis Ramos for Cash Ramos hit a line drive to center field for a single, following this Pablo Abreu pinch hit for Angel Mestre, Pablo hit a triple bringing Ramos home and putting the game (9-7 HBN). Ruben Paredes pinch hit for Adelso Boya, Paredes got to first because of a catcher interference. Paredes stole second putting the tying run in scoring position. After a wild pitch of Suarez, Abreu scored and Paredes moved to third, Alex Gonzales manage to get a BB after being behind 0-2 in the count. Cesar Echaverry came to hit and Suarez was substituted by Raciel Seijo. At the first pitch Gonzales took off and stole 2nd base putting then the tying run at 3rd and winning run at 2nd. After a extremely high strike called and the count in 0-2 Echaverry hit a line over the SS bringing both runs home and giving the win to Las Aguilas (10-9 AGL).
Putting themselves only 1 game behind La Vinotinto, the team is ready to face them this Sunday. Two of the next three games are against La Vinotinto. If Las Aguilas managed to win both games that will mean that Las Aguilas will advance to the playoffs.
Justice is late but is HERE
In the play made in the top of the 10th inning, the runner from first to second (Ivo Estevez) is OUT,
and hitter (Renzo Rodriguez) is safe and stay at first. The double play became null.
Therefore, the game is tied and how it was in that moment. If the game is necessary, for any of the affected teams, this game must be resumed from the moment of the incident under the exact line up the scorekeeper had. (Runners at the corners with 2 outs, Luis Ramos hitting).
This game might take place the last day of the season (schedule to be November 2).
