Luis Valbuena sacó del sombrero toda la magia de su talento y Cardenales dejó en el terreno a Caribes 6 carreras a 4 para lograr su tercera victoria en fila. Partido que inició el club oriental dominando al marcar dos carreras en la parte alta del segundo episodio. William Vásquez y Carlos Méndes se embasaron por infieldhits. Luis ALlen se sacrificó y los colocó en posición anotadora. Andrew Lorraine, abridor del Lara, ponchó al novato Alexis Espinoza, pero Alexi Amarista dio hit remolcador de dos. Cardenales ripostó eb ese mismo inning con doble de José Yépez luego de un out, y sencillo remolcador de Oswaldo Navarro. Luis Allen con par de dobles empujó las carreras tres y cuatro de Caribes. Pero sencillo de Navarro con la casa llena y dos outs en el sexto dejó la pizarra 4x3. Los relevistas se convirtieron en protagonistas. Juan Carlos Ovalles tuvo una excelente actuación el tirar 2.2 entradas sin carreras y Rómulo Sánchez lanzó el noveno para ganar el juego.

Cardenales amagó en el séptimo ante Pedro Rodríguez. Robert Pérez bateó su tercer hit de la noche, pero José Alvarez dominó a Valbuena y Lester Oliveros a Rubén Salazar y José Yépez. El propio Oliveros sacó el octavo por la vía rápida, dejádole el camino libre a Travis Hughes cerrador estelar de Caribes. Carlos Durán entregó el primer out en el noveno, Alcides Escobar cogió cuatro malas, Robert Pérez siguió con su cuarto hit y entonces la escena quedó servida para el héroe de la noche: Luis Valbuenam, quien habìa terminado el noveno de Caribes con una gran jugada tomando un rolling por el medio del campo y forzando en segunda combinación 46. Valbuena dejó pasar el primer pitcheo en bola, dio foul en el segundo y el sigiente la depositó en las gradas del jardín derecho para recibir una tremenda ovaciòn del público. Fue su tercer jonrón y segundo desde que está de cuarto bate.
