A Diaz duo isn't enough for Cibao.

LICEY 6, CIBAO 4 IN CIBAO

Licey:  Yamaico Navarro (Baltimore) was 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, and a home run, driving in four.

Cibao:  Robinzon Diaz (Milwaukee) was 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBIs.  Jonathan Diaz (Boston) was 2-for-3 with a walk and a double, scoring once and driving in one.

The game:  Cibao scored two in the first, but it went downhill from there.  Licey tied it with single runs in the second and third.  In the fourth, an RBI double by Tuffy Gosewisch (Arizona) put Licey ahead, and a three-run double by Navarro made it 6-2.  Cibao scored twice in the fifth and put runners on second and third with two out.  That was the last time Cibao threatened until the ninth, when a walk, a single, and a hit batsman loaded the bases with two out.

Random:  It's a shame Tuffy Gosewisch is never going to be a star.
