Puerto Rican League: Games of December 10


A good game for Jon Velasquez.  A pair of one-run games.

CAROLINA 3, SANTURCE 2 IN SANTURCE

Twins:  Jon Velasquez (Santurce) pitched a scoreless inning, giving up one hit and no walks with one strikeout.
Carolina:  Enrique Hernandez (Houston) was 2-for-5 with a double.  Juan Centeno (Mets) was 2-for-2 with an RBI.   Willie Collazo pitched six shutout innings of relief, giving up three hits and one walk with three strikeouts.
Santurce:  Jonathan Rodriguez (St. Louis) was 2-for-4 with a double and a run.  Austin Wates (Houston) was 0-for-1 with three walks and an RBI.  Victor Mateo (Tampa Bay) pitched five innings, allowing one run on seven hits and one walk with four strikeouts.
The game:  Centeno's RBI single put Carolina on the board in the top of the second, but a pair of bases-loaded walks gave Santurce a 2-1 lead through two.  It remained 2-1 until the ninth, when five singles produced two runs and gave Carolina the lead.  Carlos Corporan (Houston) singled in the tying run and Jesus Feliciano singled in the go-ahead run.  Santurce got the tying run to third with one out and the winning run to second with two out, but could not score.
