Tigres del Licey (5-2) 6, Aguilas Cibaenas (1-5) 2 - Jorge Bonifacio got the Aguilas a 2-0 lead with a homer in the bottom of the first, but the rest of the game was all Tigres.

Estevan Florial doubled in a run in the ninth and then scored on a wild pitch.
Estrellas Orientales (4-2) 12, Gigantes del Cibao (4-3) 11 - Raimel Tapai hit a grand slam to put the Estrellas up 12-6 in the seventh, and then the Green Machine survived a five-run Cibao rally that included a grand slam by Pablo Reyes in the top of the eighth to hang of for their fourth win of the year.
