For their part, the Estrellas Orientales fall to 16-22, placing them in fifth position.\n\n<h2>Early Attack and Constant Reaction<\/h2>\n\nThe Giants relied on the offensive power of Deyvison de los Santos, who hit a two-run home run, and Nomar Mazara, with a solo home run, keeping the team&#8217;s offense active throughout the game.\n\nThe Stars took the lead with a score of 2-0 in the first inning and extended their lead with a home run by Mazara in the third. However, the Giants responded with De los Santos&#8217; two-run homer, closing the score to 6-3.\n\nA three-run rally in the sixth inning allowed the Giants to tie the game 6-6. Subsequently, a single by Carlos Peguero drove in the run that put the Giants ahead 7-6 in the seventh.\n\n<h2>Stars Tie, But Without Concretizing<\/h2>\n\n<p>The Stars came back to attack in the eighth inning. A sacrifice fly by Miguel San\u00f3 brought the tying run 7-7, but they failed to score the winning run despite having a runner on third base with one out.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tenth Episode: Decisive Uncontrol<\/h2>\n\n\nIn extra innings, Luis Garc\u00eda Jr. started on second base as the automatic runner. After an out, a wild pitch by Weigel moved him to third, and another passed ball allowed the run that decided the game.\n\nDown below, Reymin Gudu\u00e1n took responsibility with Robinson Can\u00f3 as the ghost runner. A line drive by Josh Lester to center field resulted in a double play after a review, and then Jorge Mateo was dominated by the third baseman to end the game.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mound Performance<\/h2>\n\n\n<b>Won:<\/b> Anderson Pilar (2-2)\n\n<b>Lost:<\/b> Patrick Weigel (1-2)\n\n<b>Saved:<\/b> Reymin Gudua\u0301n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Party Highlights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Gigantes del Cibao:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Deyvison de los Santos: Two-run HR<\/li><li>Nomar Mazara: Solo HR<\/li><li>Kelvin Guti\u00e9rrez: Key hit in the three-run rally<\/li><li>Carlos Peguero: RBI single to take the lead<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Estrellas Orientales:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Rodolfo Dur\u00e1n: two-run double<\/li><li>Miguel San\u00f3: game-tying sacrifice fly<\/li><li>Nomar Mazara: HR<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SAN PEDRO DE MACOR\u00cdS \u2013 Los Gigantes del Cibao extended their winning streak to four consecutive games, after defeating the Estrellas Orientales with a score of 8-7 in a vibrant game that extended to ten innings at the Tetelo Vargas Stadium.
