MAZATLAN, MOCHIS OPEN MEXPAC FINALS

The Mazatlan Venados and Los Mochis Caneros were both stretched to seventh games in their respective Mexican Pacific League semifinal series, but the two teams prevailed to advance to the MexPac championship series.


Mazatlan won the deciding game of their series with Guasave, 4-1, as Adrian Gonzalez had three hits. In the other semi series, Mochis bopped Hermosillo, 9-5, to close out their series. Luis Suarez drove in four runs for the Caneros.

The Venados then won the first two games over Mochis, prevailing 1-0 Wednesday night as Pablo Ortega combined with two relievers on an 11-inning shutout in which Ruben Rivera’s RBI single ended things in the opener. Mazatlan won Game Two, 6-2, on Thursday behind Jon Weber’s two doubles, two runs and two RBIs.
