Parmaclima wins the series with the BBC Grosseto with an interminable 10-run big inning in the 5th, after the Tuscans recovered the initial deficit. In the initial round the lead off Angioi baptizes the debutant Eric Paez with a hit to the center: the former Cagliari second baseman scores on the sharp serves of Encarnacion and Luis Gonzalez that Barcelan stops with his body without managing to avoid the point. Grosseto, left empty for two rounds on Claudio Scotti’s pitches, took advantage of the decline of the former Bologna starter to score three times, thanks to two hits, two bases and two hits, in addition to the error on the new substitute Raymond Figuereido. Marcello Saccardi’s boys resolve the match in the bottom of the fifth, passing fourteen men to the box and scoring ten points, seven of which with two outs. Once Paez is down, reliever Penalver comes up with three strikes in Parma’s bottom turn, but in the bottom of the fifth attack the Cuban suffers four hits and concedes two bases and a hit, before giving way to Noguera, who fails to put a stop to the home batsmen, who scored another six runs. In the last round, Herrera’s double and Barcelan’s home run set the result at 11-5.
As happened in game 1, at UnipolSai Bologna, on Saturday evening one inning was enough, the fifth, to win the match at the stadium Jannella of Grosseto, against Big Mat Bsc and sign the second shutout which is worth a sweep that allows them to get closer to San Marino. The first four rounds are dominated by pitchers: Eduar Lopez he gives a single to Aloma, but closes the second half with a double play; Eddy Garcia Del Toro instead he eliminates the first twelve faced. The game changes suddenly in the fifth inning, in which Bologna scores the winning points: Agretti hits a valid hit and is pushed home by Liberatore’s deep triple, who runs to score the double on Gamberini’s single. At the 6th Luciani opens the second half with a double, but Lopez makes the last three outs before leaving the plate to Bassani for a quiet save
