Eduardo Arredondo
Eduardo Arredondo drew a lead off walk, advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by Maxwell Leon and scored on a single to center by Oscar Robles to give the Toros the early 1-0 lead after 1 inning.

Laguna tied the score in the top of the 3rd on a single by Sergio Garcia, who stole second, and a run scoring double to left center by Mario Vega.

The Toros answered quickly in their half of the 3rd. Jose Chavez waited out a lead off base on balls and moved to second on a single by Eduardo Arredondo. Maxwell Leon placed a bunt down the third base line and when the Vaqueros third baseman threw wildly to 1st, Chavez scored and Arredondo went to third. Oscar Robles then singled to right to score Arredondo, his 2nd RBI of the night, and the 3-1 Tijuana lead.
