A bases clearing triple with two out in the top of the sixth proved to be the difference as Cuba earned their seventh win of the Cuba Summer Series with a 6-2 win this morning over Adam Hall and his Canadian Junior National Teammates.
Starter William Sierra bent but didn’t break in his five-inning outing as he kept the Cubans hitless and didn’t give up an earned run. Six walks made for some tough situations but Sierra found his way out of them registering two strikeouts to leave two runners on in the second and stranding runners in subsequent innings of his outing. He finished with four strikeouts.
The juniors made a nice relay in the seventh as a sure double to the gap in left was attempted to be turned into a triple by the Cuban batter/runner but Clayton Keyes to Hall to Noah Naylor who applied the tag went for the second out of the inning.
