The result was the least. The important thing is that the Tigres del Licey already have their manager in practice. And what he saw he liked.
“I am happy to be part of a group that has the potential to be special,” said Tony Díaz after the training game against the Leones del Escogido at the facilities of the New York Yankees.
“It fills me with emotion to be here. An exceptional job has been done since the first day of practice a week and a half ago, ”added Diaz, who comes from being the Minnesota Twins’ third base coach.
Emilio Bonifacio and Dawel Lugo hit home runs in the game that ended 5-2 for the Lions.
“We saw many bright spots, such as the turns of Bonifacio (Emilio), Hanley (Ramírez), Asencio (Yeisson) and the young Rosario (Jeisson). The pitching also did well with Garcés (Frank) and Cabrera (Mauricio), ”added the Tigres manager.
He said that both he and the coaching staff that accompany him are going to give their best every day and that this is the spirit, emotion and enthusiasm that they hope to transmit to the players.
