While the seasons around European Baseball just got started, we are already close to the midway point in the Spanish Division de Honor, as we’ll enter week eight. Leader CB Sant Boi is traveling to Valencia to take on the improved Astros, which ended an eight-game losing streak with a split against Halcones last weekend. Sant Boi lost for the first time, when the Tenerife Marlins defeated them in game two of their doubleheader.
The FC Barcelona, which hosts fifth-ranked San Inazio Bilbao, hopes that CB has to settle for a split again, so they can close the two-game gap in the standings with a sweep. The Marlins are also at home, facing CD Pamplona. Third-ranked Baseball Navarra looks to pick up two easy wins over the winless El Llano. The fifth matchup this game day will be between CB Viladecans and Vigo.
