The Conspirators defeated the Yucatán Lions 3-2 at the Finsus Stadium in Huimilpan during the first game of the series. Despite a challenging start, the home team was able to come back thanks to an effective combination of timely hitting and solid performance from their bullpen. The Lions took the lead in the first inning with a two-run home run by Yadir Drake, while Andy Otero pitched five innings allowing two runs.
In the fourth inning, the Querétaro team responded with a solo home run from Yurisbel Gracial. Subsequently, the relievers Ofreidy Gómez, Jhan Mariñez (who earned the win), Ulises Joaquín, and Arnaldo Hernández (who achieved his second save of the season) kept the opposing offense at bay. The Conspirators' pitching proved crucial on this occasion.
In the sixth, Leonys Martín tied the game with another homer, and in the seventh, a wild pitch allowed Arturo Rodríguez to score the winning run. The second game of the series is scheduled for this Saturday at 18:00 hours at Finsus Stadium, featuring a pitching duel between Ariel Miranda and Odrisamer Despaigne.
