The Leñadores (Las Tunas Lumberjacks) had another magical night at the Julio Antonio Mella Stadium, in the heat of their fans, to defeat the Granma Sorrels seven runs to two, in the fifth game of the semifinal match of the 63rd National Baseball Series and, thus, get the ticket to the title discussion for the second consecutive season.

The saying goes that "who strikes first, strikes twice." In baseball, there is some truth to that, especially when the visiting team does it on opposing fields; as the Lumberjacks did this Thursday beating the Alazanes (Grnam Sorrels) 3x1 at the "Mártires de Barbados" during the opening of the semifinals of the 63rd National Series.

When the Leñadores begin the semifinals against Granma next Thursday, starting at 2:00 pm at the Mártires de Barbados Stadium in Bayamo, the province will once again be immersed in the emotions of the postseason. Before opening the way to the green-red future, it is worth analyzing the individual performances in a more complicated quarterfinal than expected, especially due to the resistance shown by the Ciego de Ávila Tigers.
