Winter League Recap

Venezuela over Dominican Republic 7-0

I really didn't expect Aneury Rodriguez to participate in the Caribbean Series, where all of the winning teams from the Dominican League, Venezuelan League, Mexican Pacific League and the Puerto Rican League face off, but I've been keeping an eye out anyway.  And he appeared tonight for the Dominican team, getting the start.  In three innings pitched, he gave up four hits, two runs (one earned), one walk, three strikeouts and two wild pitches, and got the hard luck loss as his team didn't score a single run.

Interestingly enough, his opponent on the mound was none other than Yorman Bazardo, who pitched for the Astros in 2009 and 2010.  Bazardo pitched six innings with five hits, no runs, no walks and two strikeouts, and got the win.
