Carlos Rodríguez handcuffed the Santeños for eight innings without allowing them to score, but in the ninth he no longer had the same effectiveness in his pitches, which was used by the Santeño troops to score 4 times and win the game dramatically.
David Gutiérrez and Ramiro Rodríguez each pushed a run in the Santeña offense and Luis López, the third pitcher used by Los Santos, was the winning pitcher by working 1 episode without allowing runs, Carlos Rodríguez charged with the defeat.
