The Cuban baseball team, will look on Friday his move to the discussion of the gold medal in the World Baseball Cup, which takes place in Panama.
The team greatly complicated after the defeat in Thursday night against the Netherlands, four runs by one, and now must beat Canada to ensure mandatory in the final tomorrow.
Alfonso Urquiola's manager will have a choice when selecting a pitcher with the northerners, for a while its share of the rotation lefty Yuliesky Gonzalez.
But one thing is the way we intended starting pitching before leaving Havana, and another is the confidence shown by the group from Cuba to some shooters.
Just Freddy Asiel Alvarez, Miguel Alfredo Gonzalez and Miguel Lahera-as initiators of game-and the right Yadier Pedroso, have been declared safe.
Would not surprise me that it is precisely Pedroso starter this clash, which will define the set that accompanies to the Netherlands to the final on Saturday.
Only Cubans and Canadians have a choice to be finalists, as Panama was eliminated, after the unexpected defeat against the weak South Korea, on Thursday night.
Today we made other games, but they only give the places from third to eighth, and which includes in late night encounter Cuba - Panama.
