Winter Leagues: Diaz and Osuna Help Team to Win in Playoff Opener

In the opening game of the Venezuelan league playoffs, Elias Diaz and Jose Osuna each contributed late to help their team to a 7-5 win. With the scored tied 5-5 going into the ninth, Osuna broke the tie with an RBI ground out, then Diaz drew a bases loaded walk to bring home an insurance run. They each collected hits earlier in the game, including a double by Osuna in the sixth inning and a single by Diaz to lead-off the second inning.

There hasn't been any mention of Osuna leaving the team, but Diaz will be leaving soon.
