Almost There: Havana On Cusp of DS Triumph After 9-7 Win
The Havana Metropolitanos moved to within one game of the Conference Championship, downing the visiting New York Titans at Estadio Latinoamericano by a score of 9-7. Metropolitanos right fielder Xadreque Esperana did some major damage. He was 2 for 4 with a home run, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. The win gives the Metropolitanos a 3-1 advantage in the best-of-7 Divisional Series.

Esperana had a consequential at-bat in the bottom of the fourth for the Metropolitanos. Coming up with the bases loaded and Havana trailing 5-4, he hit a grand slam home run.

"It felt good to put the barrel on the ball," said Esperana.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Polo Grounds II in New York.
