Things just don't seem to be going too well for the Leones this year. Aside from falling into a tie for last place in the Dominican Winter League there are now unconfirmed rumors that some team members are involved in a betting scandal, accused of betting against their own team. This comes as some of the players on the team are also facing legal troubles off the field, including murder, rape and fraud.
In actual baseball news, the race for the top spot in the Dominican Baseball League is wide open with the Tigres, Aguilas and Gigantes all vying for the lead, and the Estrellas Orientales making a push to get into the race. In last night's only game the Tigres fell 1.5 games out of first after a 7-3 loss to the Estrellas Orientales.
