Hey, what a Monday! Finally, it was possible to play at the 26 de Julio stadium, and the wait was worth it for the fans of the Cazadores de Artemisa.
Artemisa leads the series 2-0 over Industriales
Are you surprised? I don't think so: The Hunters of Artemisa have shown that, currently, they are one of the teams that usually play best against the Lions of the Capital. There have been many reasons that have influenced the existence of a challenging rivalry. Some of them are due to the fact that Industriales is the top winner in the history of the National Series with 12 titles and the geographical proximity of both provinces, which has led to the exchange of players and even coaches. Jorge Enrique Alomá, Yosvany Peñalver, Roberto Acevedo and Yamil Rivalta stand out among the current players of the Industriales team who in previous years wore the Cazadores uniform.
The Lions' current top coach, Javier Drake, was part of the Hunters' management two seasons ago. Outfielders Carlos De La Tejera and Yansué Moré, natives of Havana, have developed their respective careers with the Cazadores.
