The offensive power and unbeatable pitching of the Army Military Academy marked the first two rounds of baseball at the XXXVII Military Inter-Academy Games, dominating by knockout their clashes against the Military Academy in Health Sciences and the Military Academy of Medicine in Maracay.

In the first challenge, the ninth of the Army beat the health workers 19-0 in four innings, supported by the production of ten annotations in the first act in which he took advantage of four tickets from left-handed starter Josnel Castillo and five rockets sounded to leave the game almost liquidated.

Powerful Figuera

Shortstop Roiyet Figuera's three-run home run capped a rally with five new lines in the second act and another four scores at the close of the third set the tone for the match.

The victory went to right-hander Winder Rodríguez, who handed out four arepas, prescribed five strikeouts, awarded a ticket and received an undisputed score on the Army Hill.

Sudden Attack

The second victory also came on the fast track, beating the Military Academy of Medicine team 10-0 in four acts in another match played at the Fernando Mejías de la Aviación stadium in Maracay.

Five races in the second chapter and another five-line rally in the third certified the victory over the shipments of five pitchers from the ninth of the white coats. They accepted six rockets, including a double from shortstop Rayit Figuera, who led the attack again, hitting 2-1 with two RBIs.

José Mariño was credited with the victory for the Army with 3.1 acts of labor in which he guillotined nine, allowed a double and gave away three tickets.

Aviation flies high

In the baseball days, the Military Aviation Academy team also stood out, which dominated the Troop Officers Academy 11-1 and the Guard Technical Academy 11-0, while the National Guard Military Academy beat the Guard Technical Academy 15-2 and the Military Aviation Technical Academy 22-2.
