With a three-run rally in the eighth inning, the Yaquis de Obregón defeated Los Águilas 3-1, securing the first game of the ‘Caribbean Series’ played at El Nido as part of the second half of the ARCO Mexican Pacific League presented by Caliente. mx.

Connor Sadzeck (W, 1-1) earned the win with one-third of an inning of work in the seventh, while Jesús Cruz (L, 3-1) took the loss after allowing three earned runs.
