Vega Alta 5-2 Losers to Chupacabras
The Canovanas Chupacabras topped the Vega Alta Martilleros, 5-2, in Liga Betances action at Campo de los Chupacabras. The standout performance belonged to Canovanas pitcher and San Juan, Puerto Rico, native Álvaro Piedra. Piedra, who finished 3rd in the LH in wins with 30 in 1904, went the distance for Canovanas. He gave up 2 runs on 8 hits. The Martilleros have now dropped 5 straight.

Canovanas took a 4-2 lead on Dalmacio Garza's 3rd triple of the season. The bases-clearing triple, which Garza hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Vega Alta pitcher Ramón Palomares visibly frustrated.

"I'm just looking to see the ball, hit the ball," said Garza.
