This victory secured their place in the quarterfinals of the 2026 World Baseball Classic.\n\nThe Dominican offensive shone brightly, led by a Fernando Tatis Jr. in a state of grace. The star player drove in six runs, highlighting a spectacular grand slam in the second inning, the first achieved by a Dominican in the history of the tournament. This monumental hit extended the lead to 5-0 and set the course of the match.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"URL DE LA IMAGEN\" alt=\"Fernando Tatis Jr. celebrando su grand slam\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\nThe opener Brayan Bello had a dominant performance from the mound, throwing five solid innings. Bello allowed a single hit, a solo home run, and struck out seven batters, demonstrating impeccable control by not conceding walks.\n\nOneil Cruz also made his presence felt with a solo home run and three runs scored. With this hit, the Dominican Republic added nine home runs in the tournament, establishing itself as one of the most offensive teams.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Dominicana showed its power on the diamond!<\/p><cite>Alofoke Deportes<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nIsrael scored its only run in the fifth inning thanks to a home run by Spencer Horwitz against Bello.\n\nThe Dominican bullpen maintained the intensity from the mound. Gregory Soto, Carlos Est\u00e9vez, Wandy Peralta, and Seranthony Dom\u00ednguez completed the work, securing the victory.\n\nIn the seventh inning, Tatis Jr. drove in two more runs with a single, bringing Cruz and Geraldo Perdomo to the plate. Agust\u00edn Ram\u00edrez added another run with a groundout to second base, and Erik Gonz\u00e1lez sealed the score with a run-scoring triple in the ninth inning.\n\nWith their third consecutive win in Group D, the team led by Albert Pujols secured their place in the next round of the tournament.\n\nThe Dominican team will rest this Tuesday and will return to the field on Wednesday to face Venezuela in the last game of the group stage, a duel that will define the first place in the group.
