2008 Serie del Caribe

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Started over the weekend. Two Domincan teams (with Puerto Rico having disbanded their winter league), one Venezuelan team and one Mexican team. Licey is one of the Dominican teams but they only have Carlos Marmol on their roster (no Felix Pie) and Aragua is the Venezuelan team but they don't have Ronny Cedeño on their roster. I-Cubs manager Buddy Bailey is the Aragua manager.

The game to watch is tonight between both dominican teams. Licey has Belliard, Jose Bautista of the Bucs, Ramon Ortiz, Marmol as you mentioned.

 

Cibao Aguilas has Tejada, Edwin Encarnacion, Rafeal Furcal and other who played in the majors, they're the two best teams. Licey will win it all with a win tonight.

wow I can't believe they lost to mexico.

 

They were up 4-1 with one out in the 9th and then Marmol blew it. Then Mexico got 3 more in the top of the 10th. First Licey loss after they started off with 4 wins.

[Friendly Confines]

Wait....Marmol is human?

Licey won 8-2 to win the Serie del Caribe. Marmol didn't pitch yesterday.

 

Ramon Ortiz was the MVP.

Huh, the 2009 Serie del Caribe will be in Mexicalli, a little over 100 miles east of San Diego. Would be quite the environment to watch a game.

wasn't marmol only allowed to throw 4 more innings? if so, he was probably done after blowing that save.
