After a by Rimini over Parma, and the game between Bologna and Reggio Emilia being postponed due rain, the Italian Baseball League will continue today with games being played by all teams except for Ronchi and Nettuno who will play their series out tomorrow.
Toshiba Enegan will host the Godo Knights on Saturday. The knights are expected to have a new weapon on hand (Yulman Ribeiro) to take the mound for the struggling 1 and 7 club. Ribeiro is an experienced pitcher in the IBL having pitched for Bologna from 2009-2011 and then for San Marino last year. The right-hander is expected to back up Del Bianco out of the pen. As for the rest of the lineup, it should be the same when Fuzzi fills out his lineup card. The home team will be starting Rafael Garcia this week against Godo, with Marquez in relief in the foreign game. Ularetti will take the ball in the Italian game for Grosseto.
Also on tap for Saturday will be a double header between Novara and San Marino on Novara’s home turf. Expected to make his season debut will be Seth La Fera, who just joined the team this week. La Fera will be taking over for the injured short stop Bittar. Magrane and Da Silva will be the two starters for San Marino. Novara on the other hand will be giving the ball to Calero in the first game while the starter for the second game is still undecided.
