On Tuesday night in the Dominican League finals, Escogido lost 3-2 to Licey, ending their season. Gregory Polanco went 1-for-4 with a walk in his season finale, ending a spectacular Winter League season that saw him with the MVP and Rookie of the Year award. He hit .240 in the playoffs, finishing his season strong by getting on base 13 times in the last four games.
The Latin American Series started on Tuesday night. The rosters for the four teams had just one Pittsburgh Pirates player, Tito Polo. It appears that the season is over for Harold Ramirez.
With no Pirates players in the Caribbean World Series and just one in the Latin American Series, the Winter updates are basically over. We will recap anything from the Australian League playoffs, as well as any possible news on Tito Polo.
This weekend in Australia, Danny Arribas and the Sydney Blue Sox will take on Canberra in a three game series. The winner of that series will then take on Sam Kennelly and the Perth Heat next weekend in the Australian League finals.
