The Dominican Republic Professional Baseball League (LIDOM) has made a transcendental decision following a protest filed by the Toros del Este. The game played on Friday, January 16th between the \u00c1guilas Cibae\u00f1as and the Toros del Este, held at the Francisco A. Micheli stadium in La Romana, has been annulled.<\/p>\n
The Toros’ protest was based on an alleged violation of the league’s regulations. According to the claim, the \u00c1guilas registered nine imported players on their roster for the match, exceeding the permitted limit of eight.<\/p>\n
The situation required the direct intervention of the president of LIDOM, Vitelio Mej\u00eda, who evaluated the arguments of both parties. Although LIDOM accepted the protest in terms of form, it rejected the request to forfeit the game in favor of the Toros.<\/p>\n
The game, which had ended with a 6-2 victory for the \u00c1guilas Cibae\u00f1as, will only be rescheduled if necessary, depending on the result of the match between the \u00c1guilas Cibae\u00f1as and the Leones del Escogido, scheduled for Sunday, January 18th.<\/p>\n
In the Eagles’ roster, Odrisamer Despaigne, Guadalupe Ch\u00e1vez, Matt Foster, Yoan L\u00f3pez, A.J. Puckett, Elih Marrero, Sebasti\u00e1n Rivero, Rodolfo Amador, and Juan Carlos Bengoa were listed as imports, although only six of them actively participated in the game.<\/p>\n
If the Eagles win their game against the Leones del Escogido, both teams, Eagles and Toros, would be tied with a record of 11-7, which would force the repetition of the canceled game in La Romana.<\/p>\n
The \u00c1guilas Cibae\u00f1as are in a crucial position, forced to win their next games to keep their aspirations of advancing to the championship final alive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
