Granma outfielder Roel Santos arrived late in Mexico, but that has not prevented his offensive production from stopping. On the contrary, Santos has entered a baseball as offensive as the Mexican one on fire.

The "Dancer" is on fire in the Aztec circuit and last night in the victory of his team, the Olmecas of Tabasco, he completed the 16th game hitting consecutively.

Santos, 31 years old, has exploded with his bat since Mexico arrived and now his offensive average has risen to .429, with a .467 OBP, eight doubles, a triple and two home runs.

Proving that he is one of the best Cuban players left on the island, Santos has struck out six times in 16 games with five walks.

Since he arrived he has not stopped giving hits, and now we will see how far he can extend his hitting streak on consecutive nights.
