The Leones del Caracas achieved a long-suffering victory at the Alfonso “Chico” Carrasquel Stadium from Puerto La Cruz against Caribes de Anzoátegui and, in this way, they were able to ensure the qualification to the postseason due to their great difference in games with respect to the Navegantes del Magallanes (fourth place).

At first, the game was easy for the long-haired, who prevailed with a single by Oswaldo Arcia, a double by Alexander Palma and a fielding error from a bat by Gabriel Noriega. With two separate doubles by Isaías Tejeda and Ángel Aponte, the capitalists were already up 6-0.
Andruw Monasterio and José Azócar would discount the actions with a home run and a single, respectively. However, a shot by Jhonny Pereda would add two more lines for Caracas.
A home run by Jesús Sucre in the eighth inning and a sacrifice by Tomás Telis in the ninth would worry the visitors, but Ricardo Rodríguez would take control of the situation and the Lions would win this duel to qualify for the round robin by having a difference of six games. Regarding Magellan.
