GAME THREE

(3-0) Criollos de Caguas 7
FINAL
BOXSCORE 1/23/21 - Seeking to climb back into this series after dropping two straight, Mayagüez jumps out to a first-inning lead on a run batted in from Ivan De Jesus. Criollos catcher Jonathan Morales ties the game in the second with a single and run batted in. Mayagüez starter Luis Medina's wild pitch allows Jose Miranda to score from third for a 2-1 Criollos lead. In the top of the seventh, Indios left fielder Danny Ortiz doubles home the tying run. Undeterred, Caguas continues answering back. Center fielder Jarred Duran doubles home the go-ahead run, and Yadier Molina's sac-fly gives Los Criollos a 4-2 lead. Right fielder Henry Ramos brings Los Indios within one with an RBI single in the eighth driving home Bronx native T.J. Rivera. But Caguas is relentless. Jarred Duran clubs a three-run home run in the bottom of the eighth, giving Los Criollos a commanding 7-3 lead and the final margin of victory. Reliever Rayan Gonzalez retires Los Indios in order in the top of the ninth to close out Los Criollos' third straight victory over Mayagüez. Right-hander Anthony Maldonado earns the victory in relief. Jarren Duran is the big man on campus, going 2 for 5 with a double, home run, and four runs batted in. Criollos starter Tommy Romero yields just one run on five hits and two walks with five strikeouts in a five-inning no-decision effort. Top-seeded Caguas is one victory away from sweeping the series and advancing to the Caribbean Series being hosted this year by Mazatlán, Mexico.
