AP: Dominican Republic wins Caribbean Series finale

MARGARITA ISLAND, Venezuela (AP)—Los Leones del Escogido from the Dominican Republic won the Caribbean Series, beating Venezuela’s Leones del Caracas 7-4 Sunday night in the final game of the six-day series.

The Dominican Republic finished 5-1, one game better than Puerto Rico’s Indios de Mayaguez (4-2). It’s the third Caribbean Series title for the Dominican club and the 18th for a team from the Dominican Republic.

Raul Valdes pitched five innings to earn his second win of the series and the Dominican Republic scored four runs in the top of the first. Valdes gave up three hits and four runs, striking out five.

Fernando Martinez had a pretty good series. He hit .348 with 2 homers.

But he's already looking forward to his post-Mets career.

Minaya won't ever trade Fernando. There isn't anyone that would be offered to Minaya that he'd trade Fernando for. That's one thing I am confident about. Minaya might not be GM for long but Fernando will be a Met if he is.

Martinez was named MVP of the series.

Where exactly will he play him? Jeff Francoeur is a met for the next two years, and Frenando is almost ready.

Where exactly will he play him?


He's averaging less than 80 games a year in the minors. The Mets can play him at the same position as all their stars - the DL.

Not necessarily.
