Elsewhere, although he wasn't needed, RH reliever Manny Barreda's team won 4-2 to take a 2-1 game lead in the best-of-seven Mexico League Championship Series. *** SS Orlando Arcia did not play as his Venezuelan Caribes squad won the opener in the best-of-seven LCS by a 6-0 score. Based on some Spanish tweets, Arcia's time with the club may have finally come to a close, though it may be too early to say for sure.

Dominican Box Score Luis "Lucho" Jimenez gave his team an early 1-0 lead with this: Along with teammate Elian Herrera, his Estrellas ("Stars") team held on for a 2-1 victory, breaking a four-game losing streak and moving their deficit in the best-of-nine LCS to four games to three. Herrera, batting 2nd and playing second base, was 1-for-3 with a sacrifice bunt. Jimenez' lone hit in three AB's was the big HR. He played first base and batted 7th. Also contributing to the win was RH reliever Wirfin Obispo -- Gigantes Top of the 8th Pitching Change: Wirfin Obispo replaces Edgar Garcia. Carlos Paulino strikes out swinging. Mel Rojas pops out to shortstop Gustavo Nunez. Leury Garcia strikes out swinging. For the losing Gigantes club, Jean Segura did his best in the low-scoring game: Singled on a soft pop-up to second base Popped out foul to first base Doubled on a line drive to left field, driving in a run Grounded out to second base

Puerto Rico Box Score The LCS is tied at two games apiece. Martin Maldonado (they'll need the Jaws of Life to extricate him from this starting lineup) was 1-for-3 with one K in a 6-0 loss. Maldy was lifted for a pinch-hitter late to get a brief break in the non-competitive contest. He threw out one of three basestealers. For the winning Santurce team, Yadiel Rivera was a late defensive replacement.

Brewers got a 4th option year on Hellweg because of the Tommy John surgery. Hellweg had such a deer-in-the-headlight look and results it was scary. Like Chris Mabeus-scary, only over several appearances.

In that Puerto Rico game, Javier Baez also accidentally clipped Martin Maldonado with his bat. Fortunately, Maldy remained in the game.

Puerto Rico Box Score Martin Maldonado's club took a 2-1 series lead in the best-of-seven finals with a 2-0 victory. Maldonado had an excellent game, doubling twice in three at-bats, both scoring and driving in a run, while guiding his pitchers to the shutout, and gunning down Javier Baez on his only stolen base attempt against. For the losing Santurce squad, Yadiel Rivera struck out as an 8th inning pinch-hitter and entered the game at third base. *** Dominican Box Score With its 4th straight win, Jean Segura's Gigantes team is now just one victory away from taking the best-of-nine Dominican Championship. "Segura Tracker" - Game twenty-two 01/23 -- Singled on a soft line drive to right field Grounded out to shortstop Grounded out to shortstop Segura did commit his 6th error (no harm in the 1-0 win). On the other side, 1B Luis Jimenez (0-for-3, walk) and SS Elian Herrera (0-for-3, three K's, error) couldn't snap their club's skid. Here's video of the Herrera error (it did not lead to a run). More Herrera video - no error here, but a fun bobble. So how did the only run score for Segura's team? It was a 6th inning Carlos Peguero HR, linked here for the fun of the announcer call and the batboy celebratory handshake:

Click link for latest photo -- Lower outfield walls are a home run for Biloxi By Mary Perez, Biloxi Sun-Herald BILOXI -- The height of the outfield wall at MGM Stadium is being lowered 2 feet, saving the city money and increasing the chances of a home run ball. The City Council at Tuesday's meeting approved the change order, dropping the wall height from 10 to 8 feet and making other changes to poles and fences that will save the city $95,952. The move doesn't add any time to the construction schedule but lowers the contract price with W.G. Yates & Sons Construction to $29.4 million. "It's basically a cost-saving measure," said Tim Bennett, co-owner of the Biloxi Shuckers minor-league baseball team, which will play in the stadium this year. The reduced height could mean a few more balls will make it over the outfield wall, Bennett said. Although the team isn't sure when the stadium will be ready for the first pitch, Bennett said an announcement could come in the next few weeks of a national recording act performing there July 4. Construction is running ahead of schedule, he said, and the major work on the parking garage should be complete this week. The first scheduled home game is April 20 with Jacksonville, and Bennett said if the stadium isn't ready for play, the team will make other arrangements. Pitchers and catchers will report to spring training in Mesa, Ariz., in late February and the rest of the team will report in March. Bennett said he will split his time between Arizona and Biloxi as he continues to oversee stadium construction.

Puerto Rico Box Score This is the 6th time catcher Martin Maldonado has taken part in the Puerto Rico League Finals, wow. In this Game Two of the Finals, however, it was young Yadiel Rivera who was the hero of an epic 14-inning 3-2 win that evened the best-of-seven with Maldonado's team at one game apiece. Rivera didn't enter the game until the 11th as a pinch-hitter (struck out). But Twitter was raving about this play Rivera made at third base (hope we get video later) -- Mayaguez Top of the 14th T. J. Rivera singles on a ground ball to center fielder Reymond Fuentes. Randy Ruiz grounds into a double play, third baseman Yadiel Rivera to second baseman Robert Andino to first baseman Ruben Gotay. T. J. Rivera out at 2nd. Daniel Ortiz flies out to center fielder Reymond Fuentes. Then, in the next half-inning, Rivera led off with a single and eventually scored the winning run. Santurce Bottom of the 14th Ruben Gotay pops out to shortstop Ozzie Martinez. Yadiel Rivera singles on a ground ball to third baseman Luis Figueroa. Rene Rivera singles on a ground ball to right fielder Luis Montanez. Yadiel Rivera to 3rd. Pitching Change: Alex Burgos replaces Tyler Herron. Reymond Fuentes strikes out swinging. Rene Rivera steals (1) 2nd base. Alex Burgos intentionally walks Javier Baez. Pitching Change: Freddie Cabrera replaces Alex Burgos. Robert Andino walks. Yadiel Rivera scores. Rene Rivera to 3rd. Javier Baez to 2nd. Here's the "exciting" walkoff walk video. Maldonado finished 1-for-5, one K.

Dominican Box Score SS Jean Segura, batting 5th, is hanging on to his .300 batting average through 21 games (1-for-4, 1 K Wednesday night). Just added this to our "Segura Tracker" Game twenty-one 01/21 -- Struck out swinging Grounded out to second base Singled on a ground ball to left field Lined out sharply to first base Segura's team won 3-1 for their third straight win in the best-of-nine Dominican Championship Series. On the other side of the box score, second baseman Elian Herrera (stitches, knee) returned to action. He was 0-for-3 (walk, two K's). Luis Jimenez was idle, there have been Spanish tweets voicing some disappointment in him not being in the lineup. And we finally saw a letdown after we built RH reliever Wirfin Obispo up to legend status -- Gigantes Top of the 9th Pitching Change: Wirfin Obispo replaces Waldis Joaquin. Carlos Paulino doubles (1) on a line drive to left fielder Michael Martinez. Mel Rojas out on a sacrifice bunt, catcher Wilkin Castillo to second baseman Elian Herrera. Carlos Paulino to 3rd. Leury Garcia singles on a soft line drive to left fielder Michael Martinez. Carlos Paulino scores. Alexi Casilla doubles (1) on a line drive to right fielder Jordany Valdespin. Leury Garcia scores. Maikel Franco singles on a line drive to left fielder Michael Martinez. Alexi Casilla to 3rd. Pitching Change: Pat McCoy replaces Wirfin Obispo. Carlos Peguero grounds into a double play, shortstop Gustavo Nunez to first baseman Alex Valdez. Maikel Franco out at 2nd. Herrera almost makes the play here -- video link.

From the Calgary Herald -- Henderson rehabbing shoulder, getting ready for spring training “It felt good,” Henderson is saying on the phone as he drives to his dental appointment Tuesday afternoon. “It was just a small step, but it was a good one. It was nice to get back up on the hill. I feel a little cautious about it, but, at the same time, I’m excited that everything feels good.” Many more quotes at the link...
