Softbol Veteranos Season 11 Week 38

The 11th edition of the Veterans League's "Softball, Quality of Life" project delivered another thrilling chapter on its penultimate day — despite a stubborn winter drizzle that forced the cancellation of the much-anticipated clash between the Elephants (Veterans 1) and the Jagua (Veterans 2). But the action didn’t stop there! The Shrimpers (Veterans 3) took center stage, sweeping the doubleheader with a lights-out performance from right-handed ace Humberto León Lescano. León Lescano was untouchable, securing victories in both matchups and staking his claim as one of the MVPs of the day. The race for league MVP is heating up like a seventh-inning rally. Jagua's "Nani" Bueno and the Shrimpers' superstar Eliécer are in a neck-and-neck showdown, with 20 and 19 total MVP nods, respectively. Every swing, pitch, and catch on the final day could tip the scales in this electrifying battle for the crown. On the mound, the pitchers' leaderboard is just as tight. Quiñones and Marcelo of the Elephants are locked in with a .750 win-loss average, but Eliécer of the Shrimpers is the undisputed top winner with 13 victories. Hot on his heels are Gradaille (Elephants) and Estable (Jagua), both sitting at 12 wins each. With everything still on the line, next Sunday, December 22, promises fireworks. The one pitching title that’s already wrapped up? The "most saves" crown, which belongs to none other than Machado of the Elephants, locking it down with four clutch saves. All eyes now turn to the final day, where champions will be crowned, MVPs will be decided, and legends will be made. Grab your umbrellas and your scorecards — you won’t want to miss it!
