A radical change of face gave the Hunters of Artemisa from one week to the next, as they went from winning just one challenge to achieving two consecutive sweeps and sneaking into the advanced squad of this National Baseball Series.

The perfect hunt of those led by Lázaro Arturo Castro on July 26, began against the shaky Cienfuegos, who was awarded 9×4 markers, 11×1 knockout and 7×4 final blow.

The first day the smile went to Yunieski García —his fourth in the championship—, who as a starter has already contributed a couple of wins for our team, and came to round off the rotation. His countryman Osbel Pacheco supported him with three RBIs (CI) and two runs scored (CA).

For the intermediate challenge Manuel Murgado climbed the mound, who got his first victory in the campaign. That day the bats from Artemis were thunderous, with 16 hits and Henry Llorente (3-for-4 with a home run, 3 CA and 5 CI), Carlos de la Tejera (4-4 and 4 CA) and Dayán García (4-2, 2 CA) directing the "bombing".

At the end of the sub-series came the most even game, when the Hunters had to resort to their greatest bullpen arsenal, with Israel Sánchez as the winner, supported by Osbel Pacheco and Henry Llorente with the wood.

From then on they started batting until they won 12×5 and gave Dayron Calero his first victory. Dayán himself (4-4, HR and 4CI), Carlos de la Tejera (5-4, 3CI and 2CA) and Deivis Hernández (5-2 and 3CI) led the offense.

On Sunday our team started below, but two groups of six races —in the fifth and the eighth— decided a crash that ended 14×8, with credit to Michel Martínez Pozo. Carlos de la Tejera (4-2, 3CI and 2CA), Dayán García (3-2, 2CI and 1CA), Henry Llorente (5-1, 2CI and 2CA) and Dainiel López (5-4, 1CI) shone on offense. and 4CA).

These five victories in a row put our team tied in sixth position! of the table with Sancti Spíritus (both have 13 successes and 11 failures). They thus close a first third unthinkable for many, which can be described as very good. For the next week they should receive Las Tunas and then embark on a long tour of the East that will begin in Holguín.At the end of Sunday's game, the team received various incentives, as part of the attention they deserve and have known how to win.
