The Tigres del Licey in a recent game.
Zoom Picture

Santo Domingo.- Arch-rivals Tigres del Licey and the Águilas Cibaeñas were not able to play their much-awaited game, which was scheduled for yesterday afternoon in Santiago.

Heavy rainfall overnight which also lasted throughout morning meant that conditions in the Cibao Stadium were unsuitable for play, leading to the postponement of the game to January 6th.

Nelson Figueroa was due to pitch for current champions the Águilas, while Ramón Ortiz would have opened for Tigres del Licey.

The decision came as a great disappointment to fans.

Being a Aguilas fan in the DR is like being a Mets Fan.

The Aguilas are New York Yankees of the Dominican republic.

BTW we have the most fans!

Mets fans are people who are not smart enough or cool enough to be Yankee fans.
Jets Fans are people who are not smart enough or cool enough to be Giant fans.

Actually Jet fans are the lowest form of scum.

Knicks fans are just like all Ghetto Jumpball fans...Ghetto wannabees
Rangers fans are........Canadian?

Come on man....be for real. The Yankees have great history....but that's about it. History. What have the Yanks done for baseball lately? A-Rod....who can't make up his mind whether he wants to be Dominican or not (I think he's Dominican this year)....is the best player in the game, and the best choke artist of the game. I don't understand why the Yanks can't get it done with such a huge payroll.

One day the Steinbrenners will realize you can't buy championships. And whats the deal with publicly embarrassing and firing Joe Torre like that? It's no surprise that after Baby Steinbrenner (Hank) ran Joe out of town the Bombers missed the post-season....and Joe took his Dodgers into the playoffs. I’ll tell you what…if the Yankees miss the playoffs again this year I’ll buy you a fresh, crisp brand-new K-Rod jersey.

I have a simple question.
If he doesn't have a Birth Certificate than how do you know he was born in the D.R.?

If he is Haitian then he is in violation of Dominican law.
If he is violating Dominican Law then he is committing a crime.
If he is committing a crime then he is a CRIMINAL!
Why should anyone believe a CRIMINAL?

Aristide will be back to continue to prosecute DR in international court. Watch the evidence below"

Wow.
Full of falsehoods on something that happened 70 some odd years ago.
It was a military action to beat back Haitian invaders. Haitian deaths were around 2-3 thousand not the ridiculous # in that vid.
Also the images in the video were all staged.

Propaganda. Poorly made propaganda.

Lost....why wouldn't you invest your time and energy into something positive....like collecting relief supplies for civilian victims in Gaza.....bringing world attention to the plight of the Brazilian Rain Forest.....or in fact, getting a personality. Instead you'd rather persecute someone for "pelota dreams." Get over yourself.
