Baseball, San Marino: a win and a defeat in Parma
RACE2. Leading in the 2nd and then ko for two solo-homers, those of Mineo and Joseph in the 5th and 6th. The afternoon race is a great challenge between the Italian pitchers, with Quattrini starters for San Marino and Fabiani for Parmaclima. The Titans took the lead on 2nd. Leonora opens the innings with a double, Batista earns a base ball and for Pieternella there is the single. Full bases and zero outs, with the 1-0 reaching Epifano’s rebound.
Quattrini, meanwhile, on the mountain is fantastic and the first arrival at the base of Parmaclima arrives at the 4th (base ball to Joseph). The first valid ducal instead materializes at 5th and is a home run, that of Mineo’s 1-1. After the single by Sambucci and the base in Talevi there is the change on the mountain, with Mazzocchi for Quattrini. On the relief comes Desimoni’s single but also Flisi’s double play that closes the innings.
In the lower part of the 6th it is another solo-homer who is doing very badly to the guests, that of Joseph. It is 2-1, but the Titans react and bring the point of equal to a few meters from home plate. After the elimination of Epifano, Ferrini is hit and Celli goes with the single. Men in the corners and an out, but on the rebounding of Angulo comes the double play that closes the game. Parma wins 2-1.

RACE3. Game 3 also San Marino Baseball takes the lead and beats more valid, but the difference is that the advantage is present and therefore comes the first victory of the Poule Scudetto.
After the home team’s home runs in the afternoon, Gabriel Lino, leader in the special classification, immediately responds. The San Marino dh shoots her out for 1-0 at 2nd. In the lower part of the same second half an excellent Baez is saved in the situation of two men in point position (Battioni K) and San Marino Baseball in the 3rd stretch. After two outs, Federico Celli earns a key base ball and immediately afterwards makes a great run at home on Angulo’s double. It is 2-0, with Parmaclima making up for it under 4th with another home run, again by Mineo (1-2).
At 5th, another double by Angulo brings home a point, that of Pulzetti’s 3-1 (based on ball), while the next valid by Ustariz widens the gap between the two teams and writes 4-1.
At the 6th Parmaclima tries to make up for all the disadvantage. Peluso, relief by Baez, puts together two outs (Mineo and Talevi K) with the base in Sambucci in the middle. Quite favorable situation, but the ducals do not give up and fill the bases with the single from Desimoni and the base ball at Battioni. The valid of Koutsoyanopulos means point (2-3), with San Marino picking up Luca Di Raffaele on the mountain. The third pitcher of the evening concedes the automatic point on the base ball to Joseph (3-4), but immediately after the defeat in diamond Gonzalez for the third out.
At 7th the excellent Celli and Angulo start with two hits, but the situation is not exploited by San Marino. Not bad, because Luca Di Raffaele in the lower part is in total control and does not allow arrivals based on the opponents. San Marino wins 4-3.
