Fernando Martinez Bomb Is Difference Maker In Dominican Victory Over P.R. in Caribbean Series

MEXICALI, Mexico -- Fernando Martinez hit a two-run homer and the Dominican Republic's Licey Tigers beat Puerto Rico's Ponce Lions 2-1 for their first win in the Caribbean Series on Tuesday.
Puerto Rico is 0-2 in the tournament.
The New York Mets prospect came into the game to pinch-hit for Salvador Paniagua in the seventh inning and hit it off Lions reliever Jose Vaquedano.

“I wasn’t looking to hit a home run,” Fernandez told MLB.com. “I wanted a line drive. But thank God the ball went out.”
