Hermosillo blasted Culiacan and SERGIO LIZARRAGA 11-2 led by LUIS ALFONSO GARCIA who hit 2 home runs and drove 5 runs in, along with homer by JUAN CAROS CANIZALES and 3 ribbies by ANDY ABAD .
Garcia a power hitter, not only in Mexicn baseball but in USA minor leagues , is a strange case of hitters hitting well enoguh to be called up to big leagues ,but never get it.
Starter and winning pitcher AZAEL ALVAREZ perfOrmed well enough to pick up the victory.
JORGE LUIS VALLE for Hermosillo and Panamanian and Giants prospect,ANGEL CHAVEZ homered as well.

NOTES:

RANDALL SIMON has not reported yet to Culiacan and they are now in search of KARIM GARCIA.

Obregon pitching is struggling these days, so Yaquis are in the chase of Cuban ARIEL PRIETO a standout performer in this league to come back again.

BENI GIL is batting .417 , before the starting of yesterday´s game, after being dropped his salary.

Father and son combo of MATIAS CARRILLO Sr. and Junior, almost got confronted each other after a brawl between Culiacan and Los Mochis ignited last week end. We have no records in mexican baseball of such a thing, eventhough someone says that in late 90´s in a semipro baseball game in suburban Los Mochis villa of Las Higueras, hometown of Juan and Dennys Reyes almost ended in a brawl.

ALFONSO MARQUEZ , a major league umpire and mexican born will begin his work in the MexPac, next Nov. 1st.calling the Culiacan-Hermosillo game.

FERNADO VALENZUELA is scheduled to pitch Sunday Oct 30th against Guasave.

DAVID CORTES the Colorado Rockies closer, and a Mexicali native along with EDGAR ESCOBEDO will start playing with this tema, in Nov 1st.
