Statements ninth Dominican Republic
Gilbert Gómez, manager of the Dominican Republic, spoke about the pass to the grand finale of the Miami 2024 Caribbean Series and assured that they will have a complete pitching repertoire.
"We know that we are going to face a team, whichever team wins, that is going to come in inspired."
"We know the offensive talent we have. I know that in the first six games things didn't look the best. Nobody is satisfied with the amount of runs, hits or timely hits we have given, but tomorrow is a new game, it is another opportunity for us to show what we are offensively".
"It is understood that this is a very special place for all Caribbean baseball players, coming here to Miami is a source of pride and the fact that we have won it is very good, but that history does not really have much weight tomorrow, tomorrow we have to come to play the best game regardless of what happened in '90, '91", he concluded.
