Canovanas Triumphs with Late Surge
The Canovanas Chupacabras picked up a win at Campo de los Chupacabras, taking down the Guaynabo Libertadores, 6-4. Starting pitcher Luis Piñero was a big reason why. Piñero got the win, improving to 16-12. He gave up 6 hits and walked 1 over 8 innings. He allowed 4 runs. With the win over Guaynabo, the Chupacabras improved to 71-52.

Had Randy Caldwell not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Caldwell hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 5-4, in favor of the Chupacabras.

"I'm proud of the way we took care of business and got the 'W' today," Caldwell told the Canovanas Chronicle. "Whatever it takes."
