PONCE BLANKS ARECIBO FOR 11TH PUERTO RICAN PENNANT

The Ponce Leones rode the shutout pitching of Hector Mercado and two relievers to an 8-0 win over the Arecibo Lobos last week, completing a four-game sweep of the Lobos in the Puerto Rican Series. Mercado scattered three hits over 6.2 innings for the Leones.


Reggie Abercrombie’s two-run homer, Marlins farmhand Andy Gonzalez’ solo bomb, and two doubles and a triple for Rays prospect Gabriel Martinez led the Leones attack as the Game Four shutout handed Ponce their eleventh Puerto Rican League pennant.
