We're live, playing Game 6 of the 1906 Campeonato Nacional Puertorriqueño! Both the 🤝 #AmigosGUC and the 🦜 #CotorrasRGE have sent their southpaw aces to the mound.
Will the Buenos pull a rabbit from the hat, or will La Llamarada and the Multicolores prove too much?
Come watch!

Forgot to post this when it came out, but you can now watch Game 3 of the 1906 Campeonato Nacional!
Down two games to none, the 🤝 #AmigosGUC are certainly up against it—which is why they're sending ace 🇵🇷 Eunosto Gutiérrez to the mound.
How'd he do? Watch it all:

If there's one set of Liga Nacional Puertorriqueña games we want to make sure everyone can watch, it's the Campeonato Nacional.
The 1906 edition is a classic. Will the dominant 🦜 #CotorrasRGE take it, or will the plucky 🤝 #AmigosGUC best another overdog?
Game 1:

As we enter the seventh inning:
5 🦜 #CotorrasRGE
3 🤝 #AmigosGUC
Guánica turned an error and a bad block into three runs—but 38-year-old 🇨🇺 Marcos Michaca had other ideas. The Cotos pull ahead and *still* continue to chip away at the Amigos!

As we enter the fourth inning:
1 🦜 #CotorrasRGE
0 🤝 #AmigosGUC
Of course the Pajaritos are already leading. Of course Tito Alvarado has already stolen two bases. Their rainbow magic has been with them for four rounds. Why would it stop now?
Can Guánica bloody them a bit?

Update:
It'll be the 🦜 #CotorrasRGE, whose loaded rotation just barely got them out of the Bird Bowl, against the plucky 89-79 🤝 #AmigosGUC.
Phils fans will find Guánica's uniforms particularly familiar—and all neutral fans will cheer with them.

At any rate, Hernández turned 21 this year, and for some reason the Bateyeros decided to let him have some fun.
I mean, why not? The 🤝 #AmigosGUC put this one away—10-1 going into the top 9th—and their pitcher, lefty Eunosto Gutiérrez, who won the Excelentísimo in 1902, looks like his old self.
Luis García #4 (1872-93):
Signed by the #VejigantesLOI 👹 in August 1871 at 18, consistently caught there until 1888, when he was traded to the #AmigosGUC 💧 for his twilight years.
Sorcerously good defensive catcher (Acutísimo 1882) who logged two five-hit games (of 2,202), 2,097 hits, 1,008 runs.
The current heading for Chandler King's player page. He is shown in a white shirt and black cap, which makes it clear he's a free agent, and his two All-Star appearances are noted. He's a catcher, a switch hitter, standing 1.71 meters tall (5'7") and 89 kilograms heavy (195 lbs), and he would prefer to wear #32.
Let's say you've got a catcher who can hit and field with the best of them. He's been a Campeón twice, Ilustre of the game this year, and he gets concussed shortly before the playoffs.
You lose in round 1. What do you do?
If you're the #AmigosGUC 💧, apparently you cut him the day he's off the IL.
