Havana, March 27 (PL) - The team with the best streak in the season, Camagüey, will go out this Wednesday in search of its tenth triumph, all in a row, in the Cuban national baseball series.

The so-called Toros de Camagüey, which under that name have never won a championship on the island in 52 cm campaigns, signed Tuesday's 12-8 victory over Granma, the most powerful team at bat in the competition.

After completing the 5-0 sweep against Guantanamo, the Camagüeyans maintained their successful pace in the start of the sub-series against the four-time champion of the island.

With this success, the Toros moved up to second place in the standings, shared with Pinar del Río and Industriales, two runs behind Ciego de Ávila.

In the victory over the Alazanes (12-8), Leonel Moas, who hit 5-3, including a home run and drove in four runs, played a leading role.

Tuesday's day was completed with a 12-2 win over Sancti Spíritus, the fifth defeat in a row for the Gallos, although their star Frederich Cepeda hit two home runs.

Meanwhile, Industriales beat Mayabeque (13-7), Santiago de Cuba edged Pinar del Río (11-10), Artemisa knocked out Cienfuegos (16-4), Guantánamo defeated Holguín (5-4) and Matanzas took advantage of Villa Clara's six errors to win 17-8.

Only the game between La Isla and Las Tunas did not take place because the Leñadores could not travel to the Isle of Youth for transportation reasons.

At dawn on Wednesday, the Tigres Avileños are leading the standings with 11-2, followed by Pinar del Río, Camagüey and Industriales (9-4), Granma (8-5), La Isla and Las Tunas (6-6), Matanzas, Mayabeque and Villa Clara (6-7), Sancti Spíritus and Santiago de Cuba (5-8), Holguín (4-9) and Cienfuegos and Guantánamo (3-10).
