Today in Cuban baseball championship: Industriales -Villa Clara and Matanzas-Artemisa

The National Series resumes action today with interesting engagements, among which stands out the visit of Villa Clara squad at the premises of Manufacturers, one of the great classics of Cuban baseball.

 Industrialist comes to demanding duel selected as deputy leader of the season with 15 wins and only lost nine games -a pointer Matanzas (16-8) - with the aim of achieving a positive balance to consolidate in the upper ladder.

The Villa Clara Oranges have 12-11 record, valid to take eighth place in the table, just on the edge of the call classification zone, so require at least one win in the almost impregnable stronghold of blue to keep Latin American options in the race.

Another high carat engagement will have the role of leader Matanzas in his foray into the realm of Artemis, which is located to the surprise of many in the sixth seat with 14-10 balance, in open struggle for access to the elite round per second consecutive year.

  The battered monarch Pinar del Río (7-13) wrecked in last place this Friday and try to correct the course against Guantánamo (13-11), while Ciego de Avila (14-9) will face Santiago de Cuba (12 -12) in another important destinations classification duel.

  Isla de la Juventud (13-9) will look to extend his streak of five consecutive victories when they host Sancti Spiritus (10-13) in its overseas Cristóbal Labra Stadium stronghold, while Granma (12-8) will host Camaguey (9 -15).

  The Holguin (9-13) -The Tunas (11-11) and Cienfuegos (11-13) -Mayabeque (5-18), always in the first house, duels complete schedule of National Baseball Series for Friday Saturday and Sunday.
