The La Guaira Tiburones barely made it into the Venezuelan League playoffs this winter, but they’re making the most of their postseason. The Tiburones are now 7-5 in the first round, good enough for first place in the opening five-team round robin.
La Guaira beat regular season champion Caracas, 5-3, Friday night as infielder Oscar Salazar had three hits and scored a run while outfielder Gregor Blanco cracked an RBI double. Caracas fell to 6-6 in the first round. Zulia kept their Venezuelan Series hopes alive by shutting out Lara, 4-0, on Friday. Zulia starter Ramon Ramirez pitched 5.1 innings for his first playoff win as the Aguilas improved to 5-7. The Cardenales fell to 6-6 and a second-place tie with Caracas and Aragua. Ten games remain through Wednesday night on the first round schedule in Venezuela.
