The contribution was received by Jorge Torres, technical director of the Dominican Baseball League (Lidom), and Jesús Manuel Feris Ferrús, representing the Estrellas Orientales baseball team.
“It is appropriate to highlight the importance of this work for President Luis Abinader; he has instructed us to pay full attention to the work being done in these facilities, so that everything will be ready for the start of the next baseball tournament,” said Igor.
“I also want to highlight the management work that the president of the Dominican Baseball League (Lidom), Vitelio Mejía, and the National Baseball Commissioner, Junior Noboa, have been doing, so that by joining wills we can achieve the objective in this land of baseball players,” added Igor.
For his part, Jesús Manuel Feris Ferrús expressed his gratitude for the contribution and effort made by the Dominican Government so that the Tetelo Vargas Stadium will have the quality standards for the next tournament. He said that every day more and more people are joining the passion for baseball in San Pedro de Macorís.
