Winter League Roundup

Hola amigos

I found a really cool picture of a blond with a massive rack sitting on the bench at a Mexican League game, but can't get it to publish. So, you get this instead...whatever it is...

They play a very different kind of ball game south of the border, where the baseball season is now over, and the fiesta, or the siesta, has begun (or never ended). Here's a wrap up of how Sox players did.

Puerto Rican League:
Jose Santiago (P - Carolina Giants) went 2-3, with a 3.39 ERA in 58 IP, gave up 67 hits and 17 walks while striking out 24.

Andres Torres (OF - Mayaguez Indians) batted .248 in 37 games with a homer, 12 RBI 17 walks, and 11 stolen bases, but he struck out 26 times. Only committed one error.

Andy Gonzalez (SS - Ponce Lions) committed a team-high nine errors. Batted .245 in 37 games with 2 homers, 7 RBI and 6 stolen bases. He sturck out 22 times.

Chris Amador (2B - Atenienses de Marati) got 12 at bats and hit .083.

Ryan Meaux (P - Caguas) pitched 15 games in a relief role, going 0-1 with a 2.29 ERA. In 19 IP, he gave up 1 homer and 8 walks, while striking out 10.

Venezuelan League:
Eduardo Villacis (P - Caracas Leones) was 1-2 with a 5.08 ERA in 28 IP. He gave up 35 hits and 11 walks, and struck out 19.

Josh Fields (P - Occidente Pastora) didn't get much work the last few weeks of the year. HE finishes up 0-2 with a 10.38 ERA in 4 1/3 IP.

Mexican League:
Frank Campos (P - Mazatlan Deer) was 7-2 in 14 starts posting a 3.29 ERA in 76 2/3 IP, walking only 27 while striking out 77. Good job Frank.
