Wet debut, not completed. In the sense that the debut match of San Marino in the Champions Cup, a match that opposed him to Neptunus Rotterdam, was not played entirely due to bad weather and at the moment of the final interruption, with 8 innings archived, the situation saw the duelists on 5-5. Not contemplated the draw, in the ‘hit and run’, the match will not be homologated, with the Titans and the Dutch who are just getting together, not today to play the ninth round and possibly the extra innings. On the other hand, the rain, as you know, is not a friend of baseball and in Bonn yesterday the sky was rather threatening, even if the two matches scheduled for the morning were played, with Parma winning 11-1 with Brno (‘manifest’ all ‘8th) and the Germans of Heidenheim who had the best of L&D Amsterdam (4-2 the score). In the long afternoon spent in the diamond, San Marino was immediately at a disadvantage, with the Brazilian pitcher Rienzo who was forced to take two home runs (and one was only avoided by Celli’s great hold with the glove over the fence). However, the titans shake up in the third assault with Ferrini’s solo-homer (1-2). Then, in the 4th, they sign a ‘big inning’ of 4 points (homers by Morresi, singles by Celli and Angulo for the 5-2). Rotterdam, however, equalized in 6th place with doubles on Rienzo and on the Baez relief, so it was the rain that won. Today, at 12.30, Lino and his companions cross Ostrava.
