GROSSETO. The Italian school pitchers open the double match this afternoon, at the Jannella stadium, between BBC Grosseto and Hotsand Macerata.
This afternoon at 3pm manager Junior Oberto will give the first ball to Erik Soto (0-2, 4.85) in search of his first victory of the season, while the guests will rely on Gabriele Quattrini (1-2, 5.21), an old baseball acquaintance from Grosseto, for playing in the Jolly Roger in A2. In the Grosseto bullpen there will be the nineteen-year-old Omar Benelli and the former Neptune player Paolo Taschini. In the third match, if there is nothing new, it will be the turn of the expected Josè Gomez, 27 year old, a Venezuelan with a Spanish passport, with a history in the minors of Arizona and Baltimore, to give his contribution to the red and white cause. His opponent is Williander Moreno, who recorded a super start: 2-0, 0.45, 21 strike outs. Josè Garcia will return behind home plate, having served his suspension. The BBC, which today will once again have the support of Freddy Garcia, therefore presents itself to the very important matches with its full squad, ready to confirm the good impression made in the first three weeks of the championship.
Big Mat Grosseto, with Mattia Sireus (1-2, 8.10) and Marco Artitzu (0-0, 4.50), will try to put a stop to Parmaclima’s clubs at the “Cavalli” stadium in game 2. The two talents from Grosseto will compete with Matteo Bocchi, currently the best Italian pitcher (1-21, 1.62). In the third and final match of the triptych, the Cuban Eddy Garcia Del Toro (0-1, 5.25) will climb the hill to try to support the very young Grosseto team. Marcello Saccardi’s ducals have chosen Figueredo (2-1, 3.95) as their starter, who is looking for redemption after the defeat seven days ago against Macerata. Everything suggests two quality matches, with Stefano Cappuccini’s boys hunting for prestigious success.
